Charles Blount, born and raised in the South Bronx, lived the life he explains in his book, Whatever Happened to Charlie Boy. He earned a B.A. in Paralegal Studies from Virginia Intermont College, Bristol, Virginia. Through the love and support of his extended family, Charles Blount found his "voice" to describe the forces of abuse, failure, and despair, seemingly inherent in his world as a child. These 'forces' proved to be inadequate in destroying the inner strength he used to rise above all that was against him. Currently, he devotes himself to working with "at-risk" children, by providing support and guidance to those who are navigating their way through tribulations. Charles believes that sacrifice builds strength; strength builds determination and determination yields success. Charles Blount, currently resides in Asheville, North Carolina with his daughter, Chlo� Elisabeth. See less
