Millie
L. McGhee
This courageous young woman finished high school
nearly illiterate, and today she is an author. She also opened
her own businesses and is founder of an after school program
called “Young Talented Achievers, Inc,” which encourages
students to reach for their goals through reading. She is moving
YTA, Inc. across the country. Millie is now traveling the
country motivating children to learn to read. She states, “If
you can read, you can do anything.” Millie’s incredible method
of teaching and success with children earned her recognition as
one of the leading educators in the country.
Millie LePearl McGhee grew up in a small
plantation town called McComb, Mississippi. She graduated from a
school called “Burglund High,” re-educated
herself
many years later, and wrote a book called “Secrets Uncovered
- J. Edgar Hoover Passing For White?” [Inland Empire
Services / Allen-Morris Publishing], in 2000.
This author is CEO of Inland Empire Services
and implemented Ontario Christian Military School's
Elementary Department reading program. Growing up in
Mississippi, and raised in abject poverty, she realized in order
to fulfill her dreams something had to be done. She went on a
mission to reeducate herself, hiring a personal tutor, attending
city colleges, going to seminars, and taking classes in private
schools. She earned enough credits to teach Elementary School in
the private sector for twelve years. She shared with her
students the joys that reading could deliver, and the endless
opportunities that
books
as well as a formal education could bring. Her tireless efforts
and establishment of a scholarship fund have both encouraged and
helped thousands of students of all races achieve promising
careers.
Millie L. McGhee recently completed her
second book, “What’s Done In The Dark” [Inland Empire
Services / Allen-Morris Publishing] and is currently completing
work on a historical film documentary of the same title. Ms.
McGhee is available for book signing events and lectures.
These are her words before lecturing, “Lord
Jesus, Guide my tongue and continue to control my heart.”
