Alisa Hyman is a native of Prince George's County, Maryland
and a graduate of Hampton University with a B.A. in English
Arts. Although she cites writing as her greatest passion, she
makes a living teaching high school English and creative
writing, and mentoring and tutoring at-risk youth in Washington,
DC. Because Alisa is an only child, she fell in love with books
at an early age, and developed her love of writing in a college
creative writing course. Alisa enjoys travelling, spending time
with her family and, of course, reading and writing. She resides
in Prince George's County, Maryland, with her son Michael, who
is her greatest inspiration.
Alisa is a member of the One Spirit Book Club
who hosted author
Lisa Nichols (via conference call). Alisa is also
in the video shot during that meeting.
