The Bright light gleamed upon my shining face as the cameraman closed in the frame of me, the microphone hovering above the camera; the visual image in my mind of the magical world this movie was creating, the director hollered “Ready, Set, Action!” words that forever changed my life for the better.Shirley Jane Temple is what my mother named me when I was born on April 23, 1928 in my hometown of Santa Monica, California. From here on I grew slowly but steadily.
I got my first ever movie contract from Educational Pictures when I was only three years old

    Personal Narrative: Sally Burt

    Sally Burt is the kindest woman you could ever meet. Many take her kindness for weakness, because she tends to be very passive, but don’t let her fool you, because she does have a feisty side. She is fifty-six years of age, but has the vitality of a twenty-six year old. She has dark brown eyes that sparkle every time she speaks; her light brown skin glows ever so radiantly as the sun hits her; she has thick, brown, short hair that caresses her shoulders. Her loving smile can brighten up anyone’s day; she stands tall at 5’6, and walks proudly, while loving her voluptuous curves.…

    Personal Narrative: My Relationship With Cathy Small

    I really appreciate Cathy Small’s appreciation and respect for the Tongan people and culture. Our family like so many immigrants have a great story and journey to America. My relationship with Cathy I would say is professional in nature. As an Anthropologist she tries to remain objective. Her approach to her study takes Humanistic approach to anthropology, as Ivan Brady suggests, “must be creative, eager to search everywhere and to account for the greatest array of happenings, and willing to reach out to alternate narrative forms.…

    Clarabeth Maire Grainer laid in her bed unable to sleep, she stared at the white ceiling above her as she thought to herself. She eventually closed her eyes and fell asleep, the next thing she knew her alarm was screaming at her with loud beeping. She woke up with a sigh knowing that school started in an hour. She got out of her warm bed and got dressed in an army green sweater, gray jeans, and pulled on some brown boots. She walked out of her room and into the bathroom.…

    Personal Narrative: Kathleen Sullivan

    When I decided to create a map focusing on the hospitals in New York City, I already had in mind who I wanted to speak to for the interview component. For years, a thin pillow with the details of my birth stayed wrapped around a baby bottle stuffed with hospital bracelets. This pillow was shuffled between the far back of my closet and various boxes under my bed. Though my own name was on both the pillow and the bracelet, Kathleen Sullivan was the name that always stood out to me. Kathleen Sullivan was the name of the person who delivered me.…

    Personal Narrative: Miss May

    During the eighteen years I have lived my experiences have been fairly sheltered. I have never traveled out of the country, eaten exotic foods, or gone skydiving; consequently, I haven’t met many people of special interest. Not to say the people I have met are not interesting, on the contrary, most of the people I have come to know all have their own unique stories and experiences; however, I never did meet anyone quite like Miss May. To this day I can’t pinpoint what exactly it was about her that intrigued me so much, maybe it was her rich brown hair and almond-shaped eyes, or how she pronounced candy more like “kehn-dee”, or it definitely could have been the way her eyes lit up when she smiled—still she will always remain a mystery to me.…

    Personal Narrative: My Grandmother And Me

    Every Saturday, I distinctly recall the smell of pancakes, bacon, and eggs. The radio would be playing in the background, masked by the overwhelming chatter occurring throughout the house. So many things happening in such a small space: what I remember most, is the sound of laughter, and the smiles that surrounded me. My grandpa hollering because he cannot hear the television, my mother still drowsy from the sleepless night, My grandmother singing to the radio that was barely audible over the commotion, and me, invariably sat looking at all that surrounded me, enthralled at how lucky I was to have a heart so full.…
