About the Book

My name is Dr. Pinky Miller and I am a former student of the real bullhorn and baseball bat toting icon from the film Lean on Me, Dr. Joe Louis Clark. After writing my dissertation on the legacy of Dr. Joe Clark I felt sharing the profound experiences that my classmates, teachers, administrators and I had, was not just relevant to the conversation of the education system in America... It is a necessity if we want to effectively reshape the paradigm that has failed so many in the minority communities. This book chronicles the failures and successes of Dr. Clark and the impact his leadership had on his students, and those who worked at Paterson, New Jersey's Eastside High School during his tenure (1982-1989). Why his strategies worked for so many of his students and what is possible for those who want to really change Education in America. I am also in the process of developing a documentary that can accompany this book as a resource for principals, teachers, education boards, administrators, parents and students. I feel the reshaping of the education in America must start first at home. It is the job that can only begin with the parents and student...However; it takes a village to make sure students become successful citizens of this world. Please go to my website for more information. www.know-our-story.com
About the Author: Dr. Pinky Miller, a native of Paterson, New Jersey, was educated through the public school system, attending Public School #24 and the famed Paterson Eastside High School. Eastside was depicted in the 1989 movie Lean on Me, in which Morgan Freeman portrayed the controversial principal Dr. Joe Clark. Dr. Miller received her Bachelor of Arts degree in Communication Studies, and her Masters of Arts degree in Counseling and School Guidance, from Montclair State University. In 2011, she received her Doctor of Philosophy degree from Georgia State University. Dr. Pinky Miller is an author and motivational speaker. She is also the Executive Producer of the forthcoming documentary Know Our Story which chronicles the successes and failures of Dr. Joe Clark, his students and the real-life legacy of the bullhorn and the baseball bat. Dr. Miller has over eighteen years of experience working in higher education and has held positions as Hall Director/Academic Advisor, Area Coordinator, Assistant/Director of Residence Life & Housing, Assistant Dean of Students, and Vice President of Student Affairs. Dr. Miller loves working with college students, assisting them in times of crisis, and helping guide them toward becoming successful citizens. She has been recognized for her ability to organize and motivate people to achieve their goals. Dr. Miller is a proud member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. Dr. Miller is married to fellow Eastside alumnus Mr. Daryl L. Miller; they have five children together. Life after Lean on Me can be found on Know-Our-Story.com as well as on Amazon.com.
