Autorenporträt
Lee Pierce was born and raised in St. Helena, California, where his mother worked as a domestic and his father worked as a skilled laborer in the nearby vineyards. His family migrated there from the rural South, and they were one of the very few Black families in the Napa Valley. His family life was in sharp contrast to the life he found himself navigating while in school and at his part-time jobs. "I learned early on to do my best to assimilate in any environment and make people feel more comfortable with me." This book is Lee's first literary effort after being told time and time again that he had an amazing story to tell. Lee currently lives in Sonoma County, California with his wife of nearly 30 years. He enjoys his time with family and friends and enjoys decompressing himself at his local health club.
