It tells the information in order.

In 1990, at the age of 78, Gordon Parks published his third autobiographical work, Voices in the Mirror. The book reveals the personal side of a man whose achievements in photography, literature, film, and ballet have won him more than twenty honorary doctorates and numerous awards. Reviewing the book in the New York Times Book Review, Michael Dyson wrote, “Mr. Parks records with unsparing candor the material deprivations, psychic thrashings and moral agonies wrought by his initiation into maturity. It is amazing that he never allowed the ubiquity of racial animosity to obstruct his exploration of the mystery of life or wither his reverence for imagination and experience.”

Driven by self-proclaimed determination to “drive failure from my dreams and to push Parks became the first black photographer to work at magazines like Life and Vogue, and the first black to work for the Office of War Information and the Farm Security Administration. Parks achieved these milestones in the 1940s. Later, in the 1960s, he helped break racial barriers in Hollywood as the first black director for a major studio. He co-produced, directed, wrote the screenplay, and composed the musical score for the film based on his 1963 novel, The Learning Tree. The film was later placed on the National Film Register by the Library of Congress.

The youngest of fifteen children, Gordon Parks was born into the devout Methodist family of Sarah Ross Parks and Andrew Jackson Parks in 1912 in Fort Scott, Kansas. It was a town “electrified with racial tension,” Parks remembered. The family was dirt-poor, but the children were taught to value honor, education, and equality, as well as the importance of telling the truth. The security that Parks derived from the quiet strength of his father and his mother’s love was shattered when she died during his fifteenth year. As he recalled in Voices in the Mirror, he spent the night alone with her coffin, an experience he found both “terror-filled and strangely reassuring.”

After his mother’s death, Parks was sent to live with a sister and her husband in St. Paul, Minnesota. His high school education was cut short when his sister’s husband threw him out of the house just before Christmas one year. Suddenly and unexpectedly on his own, Parks was forced to take a variety of temporary jobs that included playing piano in a brothel and mopping floors.
