• Nikki Giovanni was born on June 7, 1943, in Knoxville, Tennessee.
• Late 1960’s was the time for Giovanni’s rise, as a part of the Black Arts Movement.
• She graduated from Fisk University quite successfully, in 1967.
• After her graduation, she went to Cincinnati and established the city’s first Black Arts Festival.
• She won few important rewards (including; Woman of the Year from Ladies Home Journal) and this situation helps here to be one of the leading poetic voices in 1970’s.
• During the 1980s, she continued to publish and spent much of her time touring to attend speaking engagements. Giovanni also found time to teach at College Mount St. Joseph and Virginia Tech University where she still works as a professor.
• In recent years, Giovanni has produced several new works. For children, she wrote Jimmy Grasshopper Versus the Ants (2007) and Rosa (2005), a picture book about legendary civil rights figure Rosa Parks. Her latest poetry collection is Acolytes (2007). Also an accomplished writer of nonfiction, Giovanni wrote On My Journey Now: Looking at African-American History through the Spirituals (2007).
