Born and raised in Ft.Worth. Went to high school for two years at Brewer High
School and two more at All Saints Episcopal School, both in west Ft. Worth. I
don't think I had to write a paper on Native Son, I think our teacher was just
happy if we made it all the way through it without killing ourselves.
