Before becoming a full-time writer, he worked as a small town lawyer and served in the Mississippi House of Representatives. His breakout novel, The Firm, launched a string of legal thrillers that have sold over 300 million copies worldwide and inspired numerous film adaptations. Despite his success, Grisham remains grounded in Southern storytelling and continues to champion causes like criminal justice reform and literacy.
