Mays is the author of a poetry collection and a forthcoming historical fiction series, The Tree of Anglee. She has also written curriculum, instructional, and staff development materials for federal and state Departments of Education and educational programs. A highly decorated educator, D.B. Mays has spent over two decades working on the local and national levels to promote education equity and support the education and empowerment of students in underserved schools and communities.
In addition to the Black Lives Matter movement and the countless Black victims of racial violence, she was inspired to write Black Lives, Lines, & Lyrics because of her own lived experiences and those of the urban and rural communities she served have had with racial and social injustice, and education and economic inequities. Her poetry collection explores a variety of themes ranging from Blackness, discrimination, life, loss, trauma, racial violence, resilience, and hope.
A proud HBCU graduate and mother of two, she lives in Atlanta, Georgia with her husband.
