Take
a walk with Diane Mckinney-Whetstone on
Cecil Street. McKinney-Whetstone grew up near
the real Cecil Street in Philadelphia, and
she returns to it as the setting for her fourth
book Leaving Cecil Street, It’s
1969, a time of war,
hippies and James Brown, a perfect setting
for the mysteries of Cecil Street to unfold.
McKinney-Whetstone explains why growing up
she wasn’t allowed to play on Cecil Street
and how the mysteries surrounding the street
fueled her imagination about what took place
there. McKinney-Whetstone also shares how she
balances her family life and explains her path
to becoming a prize winning author.
