DOSSIER: Jennifer Morrison of Mazda
Jennifer Morrison is a woman on the go.

then led a team as their Investigator-inCharge. It was both an intense and fulfilling
experience. I worked with some of the best
people in some of the worst of
circumstances. Standing on those crash
sites shook me, and shaped me into the
