About Our Guest:

Before becoming a writer, Victoria attended school in Atlanta, GA., attending David T. Howard High School and Morris Brown College. Will studying at Brown, she joined the peace movement and the fight for civil right, marching with Martin L. King and hundreds of student down Atlanta’s Hunter Street, where she happily caught glimpses of her siblings in the dense crowd. Marching, participating in sit-ins, working on voter registration drives, she was an enthusiastic participant with school mates, friends, and family, a mission that young people of the era took seriously with a strong sense of commitment and devotion. She left school during her junior years to join the Peace Corps in Brazil where she worked in the Community Development Program. While in the Peace Corps, she was able to travel to different parts of the country. She worked in Espirito Santo and in Rio de Janeiro. Her favorite city in Brazil is Salvador du Bahia because it typified for her the rich history, culture, and traditions of Africa.
