The Reverend Dr. Sharon L. Mook is especially well-suited for her new role as Pastor and Head of Staff of Fort Street Presbyterian Church. She and her family moved to the Greater Detroit Area from Metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia, where she served, most recently, as an assistant professor of Pastoral Theology and Care at Columbia Theological Seminary, a seminary of the Presbyterian Church (USA), located in Atlanta. She is a graduate of Slippery Rock University and Princeton Theological Seminary. Her earned doctoral degrees are from Southern Methodist University (Doctor of Ministry in Theology) and Luther Seminary (Doctor of Philosophy in Pastoral Theology and Ministry). She has served as a chaplain with American youth in Germany, associate pastor in a large church, and as pastoral counselor. She is an experienced leader and speaker at presbytery, synod and denominational events and was a presenter for both the Multicultural Conference and the Presbyterian Communicators' Network, during the Big Tent Conference in Atlanta, June 11-13, 2009. Program notes from that conference indicate that "Dr. Mook knows that effective communication in the midst of diversity requires understanding the different cultural meanings of words. However, she learned early in her ministry in inner-city Pittsburgh that communication involves much more than words; the message one is trying to convey verbally can be seriously misconstrued when nonverbal communication is incongruous."

Sharon Mook is married to David Crawford, an attorney, and they have a teenage daughter, Cameron Crawford-Mook.
