Raised by his mother, Ellison spent three years in Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute (Tuskegee University) where he studied music. Wheels of fate turned and Lewis Ellison passed away when Ralph was only three.
This desire of Lewis Ellison, who had been a construction foreman but a voracious lover of books, rose from his inner aspiration of wanting Ralph to become a poet. Interestingly, Ralph Ellison was named after a renowned journalist and writer, Ralph Waldo Emerson. Ralph Waldo Ellison was born to Ida Millsap and Lewis Alfred Ellison in the pleasant spring of March 01, 1913, in Oklahoma, the United States of America.
“It takes a deep commitment to change and an even deeper commitment to grow.” The pages of literature would seem as stark as a desert where an oasis is borne out of imagination if Ellison’s contribution fades like waves erasing names on oblivious sand.
