Born in Post-Prohibition rural Louisiana, Bernadene High Coleman grew up in Los Angeles where she continued her education at Loyola Marymount and California State LA.


Ever with a passion for books and reading, she has set out to chronicle the events she first heard about in her youth. Her first published work in the form of a novel, 'Mama Rose', through word of mouth, has sold thousands of copies. With a collection of poems entitled, 'Listen My Children', and a follow-up second novel, 'I Leave You My Dreams' this author will now count 'Beyond Color' as the fourth of her titles now available.

Ms. Coleman is a widow, mother of three, grandmother of eight, and currently resides in California where she continues to write.
