 BIO- 

Brenda’s Child has made it her life’s mission to inspire people through poetry and stories and through leading by example with courage, confidence, and integrity.

Born Latoya Bosworth, she dubbed herself Brenda's Child at the age of 21, in honor of  her late mother Brenda Kay Swinton.

But really.. who is she?

 Brenda's Child is the confident diva, with a smooth spoken word style. She has been writing poetry for 15 years, and performing spoken word for 6 years. She uses her poetry as an outlet as she experiences the daily joys and struggles of being a mother, youth advocate, teacher, African-American, female, optimist, and dreamseeker.

She loves to write poetry that is uplifting and relatable.  Brenda's Child emphasizes self-love, worth,  and value. She also feels obligated to tell the truth...  even if it hurts.

Her poetry is currently featured in the Pen&Ink column of the community newspaper   

 "An African-American Point of View".

In April of 2007 Brenda's Child self-published her first book of poetry entitled

"A Piece of My Mind...Poetic Confessions of a Self-Proclaimed Diva" 

Since then she has published four more titles.
