内容简介：
My name is Mary A. Gardner. I am the younger of two daughters. I was born in 1954 in Alexandria, Virginia, to John and Christine Gardner. I have five sons; Obbie Jr., John Marcus, Corey, Christian, and Michael; one grandson, DeShawn; and three granddaughters Jada, Cora-Ann, Tori and my unborn grandson (due in May), as well as all future grandchildren. I attended three years of college at Suffolk Community College. I am the owner of a small business named Gardner Poetry Enterprises. I have written for movie stars. My clientele has included movie stars Mehki Phifer (from the movies Impostor, Head Games, Shaft, Soul Food, Clockers, MTVas Hip-Hopera, Carmen, etc.) and Malinda Williams (from Soul Food the weekly series, The Wood, Sunset Park, High School High, Thin Line Between Love and Hate, Moesha episodes, etc.). I love poetry and the spoken word. I have always wanted to have books of my own works published so others could read them.
