The Book............ In the
fall of 2001, singer/songwriter Kristy Jackson, wrote and recorded a song, “Little
Did She Know (She’d Kissed A Hero)”
The song quickly became the #1 most requested song on the largest radio
stations in New York City and other major markets as it captured the hearts of
listeners in the aftermath of 9/11. Kristy received over 5,000 emails. One
hundred and sixty powerful excerpts of these first-person outpourings are now
available in the new book, Little Did She Know She’d Kissed A Hero, which gives
an intimate account of the impact of 9/11 and the resilient spirit of the
American people.
The book presents stories from:
o EMT’s, Police Officers, Firefighters, Pilots & Military
o Wives Who Waited
o Kids and Parents
o Students and Teachers
o Men Who Cried
o Other Countries
o Anniversary Reflections
Pennsylvania State Senator, Jane Orie, wrote the book’s forward. It
also includes the remarkable story of the song’s inception, lyric and how it
traveled on the Internet around the world and includes radio stations’ reaction
as the song impacted listeners. This book, a landmark in American history, is
available with the single audio CD of “Little Did She Know” ($16.95) or the book
can be purchased separately ($12.95) and is available at

Note: Kristy donated all royalties from
airplay and half the net proceeds from CD sales and raised over $26,000 for 9/11
charities. She was proclaimed by both the New Jersey and Pennsylvania State
Legislatures for the healing effects of her song.
Little did she know she touched so many

"Kristy Jackson is an angel in disguise.
Born with a talent for writing great songs, Jackson has simply used her gift for
kindness and good instead of profit. Yet she unquestionably knows her way around
the music business, and that has worked to her advantage."
