Jennifer Dyan Ghoston
Jennifer Dyan Ghoston is a same-race domestic adoptee in reunion with both sides of her biological family. After a 27-year career in law enforcement with the Chicago Police Department, she retired in 2014 as a police detective. In 2015, she self-published her memoir, "The Truth So Far...A Detective's Journey to Reunite With Her Birth Family." She credits her spiritual journey that started over forty years ago for allowing her path to unfold in unexpected and meaningful ways. In 2021, Jennifer's continued efforts to be open, honest and public about her lived experience while holding space for other members of the constellation (primarily adoptees) has led to hosting the podcast "Once Upon A Time...In Adopteeland."
