Notă biografică

Doug Cooper Spencer is a writer living in New York City. He is the author of four novels and a book written as an epistle. Doug grew up in Lincoln Heights, Ohio, an all-black town north of Cincinnati. He attended Lincoln Heights Elementary and High School, before graduating from Princeton High School in 1972. Following high school, Doug enrolled at Thomas More College, where he majored in English Literature, but he left before completing his degree because he wanted to travel and write. He joined the Navy where he traveled extensively and began to seriously pursue writing. While in the military he began to speak openly about gay rights, and as a result, he was kicked out of the military. He went on to eventually work at The University of Cincinnati where he worked in administration and lectured part-time. Doug also served as in-house lecturer at the Cincinnati branch of The National Urban League's "Leadership Training Forum". He also aided in the production of, and appears in the award winning 1996documentary "All God's Children", a film that looks at the role of black gays and the black church. Along with his husband, hairstylist and photographer Greg Cooper Spencer, Doug co-produced "The Eyes Open Festival" and was president of "The Eyes Open Festival Organization", a non-profit organization that used the arts in the black LGBTQ community to educate and inspire all communities to wellness. In 2006 Doug was named by "Clik Magazine" as one of their 'elite 25 writers', and in 2016 Doug's novel 'Ella Pruitt' was named as 'one of the best works of fiction of 2016' by The Phillis Wheatley Book Awards. Currently Doug is at work on his sixth book (his fifth novel), a collection of short stories and memory pieces, in addition to a screenplay.
