Hi my name is Grant Harper Reid. I’m the writer of "Harlem Bible-In The Beginning" and “Rhythm For Sale” & The Apocalypto Kid Goes To College. I'm a former Film Locations person living person in New York. Both of my Grandparents Leonard Harper & Fannie Pennington on my mother's side have New York City streets named after them for their works. I am a fan of photography, arts, and writing. I’m also interested in education and volunteering. You can visit my website with a click the button above.

The Apocalypto Kid Goes to College by Grant Harper Reid is an intriguing autobiography about one man’s quest to get a college education. Upon graduation from high school, Grant attends Lincoln University. However, after only three disappointing days at Lincoln, Grant returns home to Teaneck, New Jersey. To his surprise, his family has been evicted from their home. He ends up sitting on the sidewalk with his luggage. Determined to follow his dream, he decides to enroll at Marquette University far away in the mid-west. What follows is a tumultuous journey as he experiences the struggles of being a black student at a predominantly white college campus. The awkward teenage boy has to grow up fast and become a mature college graduate. This is his story.
