Judge Glenda Hatchett

Now presiding over her own syndicated TV show, Atlanta’s Judge Glenda Hatchett reads from and sign copies of her latest book, DARE TO TAKE CHARGE: How to Live Your Life on Purpose (Center Street Books).

For almost ten years, Judge Hatchett has delighted TV audiences with a brand of justice that turns the everyday into something eminently watchable. Her message can be distilled into the following two words: Dare Yourself. Whatever obstacles or fears one faces, Judge Hatchett’s prescription implores readers to write their own story in this life. With care and conviction, Judge Hatchett uses real life stories from the courtroom and her personal life to counsel readers, showing them how to find their true purpose and gifts, and to always be true to themselves.

 Interactive as well as inspirational, DARE TO TAKE CHARGE challenges readers to ask self-reflective questions that lead to moments of self-discovery and a defined pathway to healing. Daring her audience to study the positive with the same interest and intensity that they study the negative, Judge Hatchett uncovers the potential for grace and success in lives that are now punctuated with despair and unfaithfulness.

A graduate of Emory University School of Law followed by a coveted clerkship in the U.S. Federal Courts, Hatchett became an attorney for Delta Air Lines and then Chief Presiding Judge of the Fulton Country Juvenile Court. Judge Hatchett is also author of Say What You Mean, Mean What You Say.
