In 1972, he graduated from Howard University with a degree in Afro-American Studies and was the first person in his family to graduate from college. In 1974, he became director of the African American Resource Center at Howard University, where he was able to both develop his own talents and to nurture emerging African American artists. He published ten books of poetry and essays and edited four award-winning anthologies.
