Sylvia Hardie

Sylvia Hardie writes from a spectacular human experience. She was born in Nashville Tennessee. The daughter of two Airmen stationed in Seattle, Washington, she was exposed to the arts all of her life. Her father was a writer and her mother a musician. As she grew up in Seattle, Washington, she was totally unaware of her own abilities. Yet her mother spent timeless hours molding her to be someone great.

By the time she graduated high school, she was pregnant with her first child. The following year she decided to attend cosmetology school, and while training discovered she was pregnant again. Utilizing clear thought, self-determination and sheer will she completed the training and earned her license as a Cosmetologist. After becoming pregnant for a third time, she decided it was time to regroup. Within that 4 year period, she had birthed 3 children, finished school, worked hard and saved all of her resources to open up her business.

Focused on creating a change for her family and herself, Sylvia went to work. She received public aid, childcare and serviced hair clients in her home. She saved every dollar she could and in one year had saved enough to open her own hair salon.

She got married and divorced within a 7 year period of physical and verbal abuse that started her transformation. It was after the marriage during her time of healing that she found her voice as a writer and changed her life. She continued her career as a stylist in Seattle for 20 years, and then relocated to Las Vegas, Nevada where she currently resides. She is a prolific writer who uses her creativity to create works of fictions that challenge the status quo and real life experiences to add captivating life to the characters.

In addition to writing this mother of 3 and grandmother of 3 is a Cosmetology Instructor.
Sylvia Hardie is an instructor as well as a motivator to her co-workers and students. She loves to motivate, challenge students and be a positive force to all. She loves good movies and spending time with the special people in her life.
