Autorenporträt
A. Dene`e is a proud Detroit native. Though she fell in love with writing as a child, she committed herself to the craft of poetry after seeing Dr. Maya Angelou lecture and perform at a university in Michigan. A. Dene`e earned her degree from Wayne State University, where she was published as a Ronald E. McNair scholar. A TRIO alum, A. Dene`e decided to give back through education as a reading/writing lab instructor in the Upward Bound program. After an "incubating experience," A. Dene`e began performing at Mellow Soul Tuesdays, where she became a participant in the resurgence of soul art in Gainesville, Florida and was encouraged to seek publication. In 2015, she co-founded "Generation Soul," which offers tutoring, in addition to free poetry and open mic workshops at local libraries. She is active in the Sickle Cell community and leads in the effort to raise awareness, increase research and funding, and improve the quality of medical care provided to people and families living with the disease. Write-Handed Poetry is her first published collection of poetry.
