About the Author Harry W. Kendall, eighty-eight years old, is a black novelist, playwright, and yoga enthusiast. He earned a Master of Fine Arts degree from Vermont College of Fine Arts and a journalism degree from Rutgers University. Harry grew up in the steel mill and coal mine region of western Pennsylvania. He began writing at midcareer as a worthy candidate of a central New Jersey newspaper's joint effort with Rutgers to comply with the 1968 report of the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders. It stressed the hiring of blacks and Latinos to redress the imbalance of whites and blacks in the news media. While working on his MFA, Harry concentrated on meditation and found his true voice in writing from an inner sacred place. He has conducted workshops on meditation and writing for the National Writers Union. Harry's first novel, Truth Crushed to Earth, self-published in 1999, won a Certificate of Merit from Writers Magazine. He has published short stories in literary magazines and lectured at the Politics and Prose Bookstore in Washington, DC; Pratt Library in Baltimore, Maryland; Swarthmore College in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania; City College in New York; St. Vincent College in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, and Brattleboro, Vermont.

Autorenporträt
Harry W. Kendall, 92, a historical fiction novelist, and a retired journalist, approaches his stories and writes from his inner sanctum. This holistic approach Harry considers essential to connect spiritually with the protagonist(s) and other points of view in search for the vein of truth. It must run the length of the historical account, or he labels the incident a fabrication, a his or her story, not worthy of his pen. Harry meditates in the yoga tradition. After more than 40 years studying, practicing, teaching, he stopped being a life coach a few years ago to concentrate on historical fiction though he still teaches seniors yoga. Harry applies the principles in Truth Crushed to Earth to a MLK JR. Trilogy he is writing, named Reap the Hot September Harvest. The first book, Desiree, is available. She, a freedom Rider, and a victim of the Klan's Mpthers'Day attack sets tone and pace of the work. The characters and protagonists were selected to write a literature of the Civil Rights Movement in Book 1 and 2. In Book 3 the protagonist goes to Egypt. Whew...There the veins of truth are daunting. Harry has a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism from Rutgers University, and an MFA degree in Writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts. He lives in Burlington County, New Jersey with his wife. See his website.
