response: That's an interesting thought. He was also a representative from Mississippi from 1984 to 1990.
original_response: Probably. A lot of good authors seem to have that valuable life experience. He also served in the House of Representatives from 1984 to 1990
history: Did you know John Grisham is a popular author? I have no idea how popular he is, but his first best-selling book, The Firm, sold over seven million copies. I didnt know that didn't they make a movie about that book? Yes, it was adapted into a film in 1993, starring Tom Cruise. Do you know any other movies that were made into movies from his books? Other movies made from his books include ''The Chamber'' ''The Rainmaker'' and ''A Time to Kill''. Is John Grisham still putting out books? I have no clue, however he did practice criminal law for about 10 years. I see that is where he probably gets his ideas from.
knowledge: He practiced criminal law for about a decade and served in the House of Representatives in Mississippi from January 1984 to September 1990.
