Anita Dixon-Thomas is a licensed clinical social worker with a passion for writing fiction, non-fiction and short stories. Her passion for writing begin way back in high school while taking a creative writing English class. Although she never pursue journalism as a career (even though she was urged by teachers and professors to do so) she opted instead to become a social worker to help those who face daunting adversities in their every day life. Some of those experiences will be reflected in her writing as she continues to publish new works. Her hope is to shed light on the social work profession so national audiences are aware of the important contributions social workers often give for the greater good of society.
