They Raised Me Up is the story of her battle to succeed in the world of jam sessions and jazz clubs--a man's world where women were seen as either sex objects or doormats. To survive, she had to find a way to pay the bills, overcome a crippling case of stage fright, fend off a series of unsuitable men, and most important, find a reliable babysitter. 606 $aAfrican American single mothers$vBiography 606 $aAfrican American women musicians$vBiography 606 $aAfrican American women$vBiography 615 0$aAfrican American single mothers 615 0$aAfrican American women musicians 615 0$aAfrican American women 676 $a306.8743208996073 700 $aWilkins$b Carolyn Marie$01670500 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811200503321 996 $aThey raised me up$94032396 997 $aUNINA
