    MEET DR. HARRY ROBINSON JR.

    in Visual Arts

    Museum director, Harry Robinson, Jr. was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on September 16, 1941. His mother, Ruth, and father, Harry Sr., raised their family in Raceland Louisiana, where Robinson attended Pitman and Kent Hadley elementary schools. The family moved to Thibodaux, Louisiana the year Robinson entered high school. He attended C.M. Washington High School where he came under the tutelage of his industrial arts teacher. However, health reasons prompted Robinson to instead major in history and minor in library science, and he received his B.A. degree from Southern University in 1964. After earning his Ed.D in 1969 at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and heading up special collections for Alabama State University, Robinson joined Bishop College in Dallas as librarian and museum director in 1974. With his negotiation skills, Robinson was able to acquire many collections for the museum. Under his leadership, a new facility was built in 1984 as Fair Park in Dallas to house the collection. The collection includes African American decorative arts, Sepia Magazine’s photo archive and the carefully researched archaeological specimens of the Freedmen’s Cemetery Collection. Robinson has developed the African American Museum in Dallas into a nationally recognized destination for people from all over the world. Robinson lives in Dallas, Texas. He is the President of the Association of African American Museums, the African American Library Association and a member of the Institute of Museum and Library Science.

    Love Is Not Enduring - A Quest For Love

    in Writing

    In Cecilia Okugo's novel *Love Is Not Enduring*, readers are transported to the sun-kissed streets of San Diego, where the paths of two unlikely souls intersect in a whirlwind of romance and self-discovery. The story revolves around the blossoming relationship between an interior designer and a contractor, whose professional collaboration evolves into something far deeper and more profound.
    As they navigate the challenges of their respective careers and personal lives, the sparks between them ignite into a fiery passion that neither can deny. Against the backdrop of San Diego's vibrant scenery, they embark on a journey of love and self-discovery, discovering unexpected depths within themselves and each other.
    However, as their love grows, so do the obstacles they face. From professional rivalries to personal insecurities, they must confront a myriad of challenges that threaten to tear them apart. Yet, through it all, their bond only strengthens, proving that true love is not merely enduring but also transformative.
    Through her evocative prose and vivid storytelling, Okugo crafts a captivating tale of love, resilience, and the enduring power of human connection. *Love Is Not Enduring* is a poignant reminder that, in matters of the heart, the most powerful force of all is love.
