Autorenporträt
Eric A. Yancy, M.D. has practiced pediatrics in Indianapolis, Indiana for over forty years. Located in an inner-city location he cares for a large number of traditionally underserved children. After completing a residency at Indiana University's James Whitcomb Riley Hospital for Children in 1979, the first African American physician to complete that residency, he chose to remain in the Indianapolis area. He previously obtained an undergraduate degree from Southern University in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and graduated from Creighton University School of Medicine in 1976. In 2011 he was honored as the distinguished Creighton alumnus, and received that award. Dr. Yancy is active in his church and community theater. An accomplished baritone, he recorded his initial project "Modern Spiritual" in 2009. He continues to perform occasionally. He credits much of his success to his early cohesive family life, and the strong Christian values instilled by his parents. His father, Robert E. Yancy, Jr. and his mother, Delsie M. Yancy were always encouraging and stressed education. He remains extremely close to his siblings Robert E. Yancy, III, Dr. Saundra Yancy McGuire, and Annette Yancy. He has been married to Pamela E. Campbell Yancy for over forty-five years. He has three children, Shawn Yancy Wiseman, Erikka Yancy and Damion Yancy. He has an active social media presence, continuing to educate on various pediatric topics. Although he has enjoyed writing his entire life, Cottonmouth is his first full-length work of fiction. In his words, "everything happens when it is designed to happen, and I don't mind waiting on The Lord".
