Thoughts While Chillin': Autobiography of a Black Public Servant

by Denise Meridith

Denise Meridith is a Brooklyn-born African-American, whose 29 years in Federal service involved living and working in six different states and the District of Columbia twice, as well as visits to every state except South Dakota, China, South Africa and other countries. This book details her recollections (i.e., her “Thoughts while Chillin') of her challenges and successes in a white dominated profession and agency, a struggle which propelled her to the highest rank of career public service in Washington, D.C. Since 2002, Ms. Meridith has been chillin' with her own consulting firm--Denise Meridith Consultants Inc--in sunny Phoenix, Arizona. She has since written a sequel to Thoughts, called The Year a Roof Rat Ate My An Arizona Survival Guide for Entrepreneurs (www.roofratatemydishwasher.com). It describes her life after government in the world of private industry and non-profits.
