Jonathan R. Miller

Jonathan R. Miller: It took time for Jonathan R. Miller to triumph, but he did. He struggled with being biracial as an adolescent before coming to terms with his identity as an adult. His mother, white, grew up in a small town in North Dakota and his African American father was raised in Chicagos south side. Miller's childhood experience growing up in Los Alamos, New Mexico fueled his creativity, according to Huffington Post. Growing up, it always seemed like there was something wrong with being mixed, Miller told The Canada in a recent interview and Most people have been in a situation where they have faced discrimination in one way or another some from a very early age. Many of us survive these encounters, but it's the determined few who overcome these frustrating experiences and turn them into resolve builders and game changers. Today, the 39-year-old literary fiction author writes e-book thrillers that include multicultural or biracial characters and themes. It's his personal knowledge of racial tension that pushes his stories. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
