Auntie Glo and the Dancing Machine (ePub)

Fascinated by the theatre, nursery rhymes and the Caribbean islands, Gloria Stephens grew up with a father who loved books and a mother who loved people. Born to Moses and Henrietta Bennett Stephens in Jacksonville, Gloria learned to appreciate island life early on because of her mothers South Carolina influences with Geeche and the ocean. Attending Jacksonvilles local schools, she attended Florida Community College (now FSCJ) for her AA, the University of South Florida for her BA in Speech Communications/English and later completed all but one class for a MA in Organizational Development at USF. Professionally, she has worked for Eckerd College as Director of Minority Services in St. Petersburg; the SouthWest Florida Water Management District as a Public Information Specialist in Brooksville; as an adjunct instructor for Jacksonville University and FSCJ; and twelve years as Center Administrator of the St. Stephen Child Care and Learning Center, where she is also a member of the church. A member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Gloria started a theatre group in every city she lived. For twenty years the BlackTown Players was her effort to give youth and adults in Jacksonville an opportunity to explore drama and poetry on stage. Directing shows, reciting poetry, cruising the Caribbean, interacting with youngsters, and listening to music all give her great joy. With a new life challenge of being a dialysis patient, FreseniusMedicalCare has a video of her recent health on YouTube as Glorias Thrive On Story. Being both positive and adventurous, shes excited about authoring her next book.
