Twelve Step Guide to Writing A Theme-base Research Paper: Montgomery Bus Boycott (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780615889139)

Dr. Ramona L. Hyman, a native of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is an educator, essayist, poet, blogger, and performance artist. African American critic Dr. Joyce Joyce says, Hyman is a writer who "challenges readers to explore a poetic imagination grounded in a feel for the southern landscape, African-American literary and political history, Black spirituality, and a creative fusion of Black folk speech with a Euro-American poetic vernacular. Ramona L. Hyman emerges as a strong . . .intellectual poetic voice." Dr. Hyman earned a BA from Temple University, the MA from Andrews University, and her PhD from the University of Alabama. Her research interests are the Montgomery Bus Boycott of 1955, African American poetry, and the Healing Poetic in African American thought. The founder of the celebratory conference African Americans: Healers in A Multi- cultural Nation, Dr. Hyman has served as a speaker for the Alabama Humanities Foundation and a poet in resident for the Alabama State Council on the Arts and the Huntsville Arts Council. She has performed "Hey Let Me Tell You Something About Rosa Parks" nationally. Hyman has been the recipient of the National Endowment for the Humanities Summer Seminars for College Teachers' grant. Hyman, moreover, has served as an adjudicator for Faculty Research Awards for the National Endowment for the Humanities, Washington, D.C. Presently, she serves as the Chair of the College Language Association's Committee on Creative Writing. Dr. William Ferris, former director of the National Endowment for the Humanities, says Hyman's skills as an actor and writer are rare.
