Timothy William Crawford was born and raised in the Washington Metropolitan area. Mr. Crawford is a freelance writer, who has also worked as a Community Activist for causes such as community revitalization, urban development and countering discrimination within our nations lending institutions.

Timothy focuses many of his writings on society. He states: "Many of the folks speaking on behalf of our generation fail to understand the realities of the environments we must survive. I do not condone a person who picks up a gun to solve a problem, but on the other hand, I can relate to and comprehend the influences that bring on those types of actions. It's time we tell the truth about what's happening in our communities."
