Cooper was born in the heart of Bedford Stuyvesant in Brooklyn, New York. She has worked with youth and troubled youth and adults most of her life; Summer Youth Programs, NYC Dept of Corrections, Division for Youth and teachings and mentoring in religious and educational settings for over 30 years. Her most rewarding employment was as an airline agent, which she did for fifteen years and retire May 2011, to start her own business. All of this, working two sometimes three jobs while raising her four successful sons.
E.K. has been writing for years, poems plays etc... Two special people in her life who would call and encourage her to write by always asking her to write a poem, play openings or endings, obituary's etc.. Her late mother, Joan Cooper, who she dedicated this book to, and her best friend Delores Hill who passed away before her book was out. Her "Dreams of Love Part Two" will be dedicated to Delores.
This book was written after her mom’s passing, it was the way she coped with the sudden lost and did not realize it until it was finished. The first two years after her mom’s passing she did an entire book of poetry and greeting cards. Instead of publishing the book of poems she decided to do the ten short love stories. The poetry and greeting cards will be published in the near future.
Looking at the lives of the young women she mentored as well as others has also inspired her to write this book, hopefully, young men and women will get the message.view less
