Ebony M. Jones-Kuye

Biography

I am a lifelong Los Angeles resident who loves Thriller movies and learning about History. In between working in HR Recruiting, hanging with my husband and daughter, and being active in Top Ladies of Distinction which is a non-profit humanitarian organization, I did find the time to write my first book which is a true life story based on real events that happen in my life. My mother and I faced devastating situations and not only fought to hold on to each other through poverty, discrimination, physical disabilities, death, but also to stand strong against the opposition that threatened to make them feel small and invisible...former NBA Clippers owner Donald Sterling.

My first book, Stand For Something or Stand For Nothing has already received excellent reviews on Amazon and Goodreads since it was released on July 27th. I am working on my second book which will be based on my experience in West Africa. It will be released in late Spring 2016.
