Get ready for a pep talk that explains how perseverance, persistence and pain can lead to productivity, fame and fortune in a writer’s life.
When you hear about the life and work of African-American crime writer, Chester B. Himes, you will overstand what’s possible for a writer, even when confronting the worst things life can throw at you. Racism, violence, prison, poverty, chronic pain. Chester Himes experienced all of those things and more, and yet still managed to write award-winning novels, searing social commentary, short stories, and two memoirs.
Press play to learn all about this inspiring yet under-appreciated writer who spent the latter years of his life in a small, seaside town in Spain, writing through his pain.
MORE CHESTER HIMES
If you’d like to learn more about Chester Bomar Himes, you can read his memoirs:

You can also read the critically acclaimed biography, Chester B. Himes, by Lawrence P. Jackson.
