Harlem Bible: In The Beginning Paperback - 2017

Harlem Bible Author's Biography Grant Harper Reid grew up with his family in Harlem. As a pre-teen, he and his family moved to the suburbs of Teaneck, New Jersey. Throughout those formative years, the author often traveled back to Harlem to visit family members or for temporary summer employment. Once Grant graduated from Bard College he returned back to Harlem. The author continued his education with the National Academy of T.V. Arts & Sciences and Ossie Davis's Institute of New Cinema Artists. Then Grant went on to work professionally in the world of entertainment. He kicked off his career with a variety of functions for recording artists and their companies. Reid went on to earn a living servicing all departments while on location for motion picture, music video, and commercial companies. Grant thrived working up close and side by side in spite of some of the most, racist Caucasians and self-absorbed cowardly Negros this side of Hollywood on the Harlem River. It was by no means an unproblematic task for Reid to become proficient as a writer. While in 3rd grade he was bussed from Harlem into an all-white school in the Kingsbridge section of the Bronx. The students in his classes were more educationally developed in English and the officials ignored what deficits the ghetto children brought with them. It took Reid a lifetime to become the Grand-Prize 5-Star award-winning author that he is today. Harlem Bible is an engaging and hilarious book that explores real black history.
