This was an interesting conversation with a man who grew up with no male role model in his life and studied the sociological impacts of masculine role models has on young men.  He went through several ups and downs in his life (including being homeless for several months) on his way to finding his voice through poetry.  

Damian White is a writer from Columbus, OH. He is the author of the poetry book, I Made A Place For You, which is his debut collection.  After battling two bouts of homelessness, he channeled those experiences into poetry as a way to heal a fractured identity.
