Author April Joy Bowden was raised in Richmond, Virginia where she discovered her love of writing. Being separated from her siblings in the era when long distance calls cost extra, writing was the most cost efficient way to communicate. Her older sister sent her a poem to memorize at age eight. That poem sparked a love for poverty. April's interest in reading came a few years later when her father gave her a copy of "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings."
April is a graduate of Virginia State University, an avid runner, and a twice published author.
Fun fact about April: she has lived in five states and twenty one different houses. She currently resides in Greensboro, NC.
