Originally from Edenton, N.C., Martin Parker spent most of his professional music career in Nashville, Tennessee. He played locally in garage bands with "Moon" in high school, as well as many other local musicians. Parker relocated to Nashville in the early 70's to make it in the music scene. As luck would have it, he ended up performing with many great artists including Ricky Scaggs, Vince Gill, Earl Scruggs, Patti Loveless, and Allison Krauss, to name a few.

Hammond writes in the beginning of the book “I didn’t set out to be a writer. I wanted to be anything and everything else!” Hammond kept the journal for five-years, writing down any snippet that paused the chaos of her life; in the end they totaled over a thousand. Snippet = comment or experience.

In the spring of 2007, after sharing the handwritten journal with countless girlfriends as a source of reference, Hammond realized what she’d written, a guide for becoming your own Superwoman. Development of the book and I am Ana brand quickly began; with the handwritten journal as the first 8k words and the remaining 6k written while bringing the brand to market.

Hammond will read select excerpts from the work on Saturday, January 8, 2011 - 10am (with seating to begin at 9:30am) at Inteliport on Main Street in Hertford, NC. A sample of the work can be downloaded from the publishers’ web site www.iamsuperana.com. Those interested in pre-purchasing copies of the book during the initial print through March 15th, 2011 may do so directly through the publisher.

Hammond discusses the development of the work through a video journal which can be viewed on YouTube (www.youtube.com/IamSuperAna) or you may chat directly with Hammond through her Facebook account Facebook.com/IamSuperAna.

Hammond grew-up near the Outer Banks of North Carolina; in an area low on development but full of friends and adventures. Her fondest memories involve Friday nights spent cheering at her high school football games; she’s now a varsity cheer coach and operates an event venue in Downtown Norfolk with a girlfriend. Hammond lives in Virginia Beach, VA with her Husband and 47 pairs of shoes.

Ana came to life on March 13th 2005. Hammond says “I wasn’t aware at the time – but, my life would forever be defined as ‘before’ and ‘after’ that date; as it was on that day that I joined Gold’s Gym (for the second time) with the goal to once and for all take control of my body. It wasn’t until almost a year later that I realized I’d also taken control of my life and was in the process of redefining my mind.”

A little whisper had become a distinct shout – “I am Ana! I am Ana and I own THIS life!”

Ana is a character, a persona of the modern woman, a collective body of all the positive attributes from women of the world. Ana is a modern Superwoman.

I hope that Frank decides to write one, as I'm sure it will be just as enjoyable.

Dedicated to the idea of learning by doing, the Hurrah Players provides a joyous learning experience for children of all ages. Classes include acting, dancing, singing, musical theatre and stage craft, all of which serve to build artistic and creative skills.

This instruction is then translated into a hands-on educational experience through the mounting of four main-stage productions per season. Students have the opportunity to join in these productions, fulfilling their personal dreams and carrying the audience to their own "dream" state.

Hurrah Players was created by Hugh Copeland, a Perquimans County native, in 1984 to train young actors and put them on stage in full Broadway-style productions. The group is based in Norfolk, Va.

The Summer Breeze concert series for 2008 was quite successful. They drew good-sized crowds who enjoyed the music in person and, later on Radio Cafe Hertford 103. It was our pleasure to put the music on our web site for one and all to enjoy.

The music was quite a variety. The opening act was Connected which did just that with the audience. Following that jazzy presentation there was bluegrass by Strings Attached - and those attached strings sounded good.

The closer was the 2008 Gospel Festival with music by the Locust Grove AME Church Choir, The Blessing Boys of Hertford United Methodist Church, Cherry Alexander from Warren's Grove Church, and the Holy Trinity Community Church Male Chorus.

It was an excellent cross-section of gospel music climaxed by the outstanding men from Holy Trinity.

The first two concerts had to be moved to the Recreation Center, but the gospelers did perform at the Newbold-White House site on a perfect-weather day.

Our thanks to the performers, the attendees, and to those who contributed their talents. Thanks from Radio Cafe Hertford 103. Frank Roberts
