Born African American in the winter month of October 22, 1960. I am the Last Female child out of fi ve between the second marriage of my Father, Othello A. Rollins and Mother, Birdie Mae Rollins. I have two daughters, Safi yyah R. Mirtia and Bahiyyah M. A. Maalikulmulk. I lived primarily on 41st. and Ellis Ave. in Chicago, IL.. However, my major impact was in the projects on the South Side of Chicago Robert Taylor Homes. I attended many schools, but manage to graduate from M. L. King High School and successfully completed my LPN certifi cate at Dawson Skill Center. I later went on and finish at Trumen College and receive a Diploma of Arts Certificate. I worked as a Lifeguard during the summer for ten years for The Chicago Park District. I volunteered as a security guard for Dorothy Tillman 3rd Ward Alderman, during the late Mayor Harold Washington years. My last major career was as a Geriatric Psychiatric Nurse for four years. Presently, I'm writing books and poems in my spare time. Peace be with you!
