About Me |
|
| Omo Misha means Misha's children in Yoruba. It is the name that most people have come to know me by. My name is Misha....although some people call me Omo. I don't bother to correct them.
I am an artist of many ilks; a writer, singer/songwriter, jewelry and visual artist, and arts educator, I can't help but deem myself "a creative institution." Visit my website , where you can find out eeeeevvvvvvverything you could possibly want to know about me and, if you look hard enough, probably even a bit more ;-) Visit: OmoMisha.Com Read: The Omo Misha Times Listen: TO MY MUSIC Check Out: The Omo Misha Gallery Save The World!: whatrUdoing.org "Manifesting Things" is a 219 page publication written by yours truly :-) It explores modern perspectives on spirituality, religion, and philosophy, along with some of my own hard-learned lessons in life. Although, the book is geared towards African-American women (simply because I am one, and I think in terms of our particular needs and concerns), its content is universal, and is in no way limited to the interests of any particular group. (In other words, this is not necessarily a girly book!) "Manifesting Things" is currently available for sale. Please visit ManifestingThings.com for more info, or to review or purchase the book. NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON.COMManifesting Things: Making Your Way When There Is No Way - $14.95 ISBN: 978-0-9796-9300-7 Publisher: Omo Misha Copyright: � 2007 Misha McGlown Language: English Country: United States Edition: First Edition - Book Cover by Moyo Design - Click HERE to read the new issue of THE OMO MISHA TIMES!!! THE NEW ISSUE OF THE OMO MISHA TIMES HAS FINALLY ARRIVED - BIGGER AND BETTER THAN EVER BEFORE!!!! For those of you who don't know, THE OMO MISHA TIMES is an Internet 'zine I've published since 2002. It covers art, news, politics, fashion, fun, inspiration and more. Check it out by clicking one of the links above, or by visiting OmoMisha.com and clicking "Omo Misha Times" in the main menu.

My Interests |
|
| I fancy myself an outdoorsman, LOL! While I am grossed out by dead fish, hooking worms, and dirt underneath my fingernails, there is nothing greater for me, at this moment, than taking in the view from a mountaintop, listening to the songs of oceans, the sun on my shoulders and sand beneath my toes. I am awed by nature. (Corny, I know.) Even the Hudson River, filthy as it is, never fails to excite me in its various complexions. And, Central Park is a constant wonder in its mere ability to thrive amidst its harsh, concrete surroundings. It is reminder of what New York used to be...before they started the chopping and building that has yet to cease.
Perhaps one day this great outdoorsman may even learn to swim ;-) |

I'd like to meet:my grandfathers, great-grandparents from both sides, and all my ancestors before that. my grand-children, their children, and their children's children for generations to come... |

Although, I cannot say that hip-hop has influenced me (musically) in any way, I would be remiss if I didn't at least give props to some of the early hip-hop acts. I have also enjoyed a lot of underground hip-hop - artists whose names I do not know..... diana ross was EVERY woman in detroit minnie riperton was an angel! josephine would have LOVED my jewelry! sometimes i wonder if i could have saved her life |

Movies:Here are my all time faves - this is just off the top of my head, certainly there's more...! Please keep in mind though, that I am rarely up on the latest flicks. Sometimes it takes me two or three years to get around to seeing a movie. Again, I have NO concept of time...- City of God - Excalibur - Almost Famous - The English Patient - Memento - LayerCake - Kung Fu Hustle - Imitation of Life (the original) - The Barbarian Invasion - Mona Lisa -The Professional - Central Station gratuitous violence, love, horror, shock, and truth - this movie is da bomb! |

Heroes:My Mom and Dad, and both my grandmothers.My greatest heroes are in my blood - ordinary Africans who survived the middle-passage, slavery, angry lynch mobs in Georgia and Mississippi, educated themselves and raised families on the frontlines of the civil rights movement, and did so with miraculous amounts of grace, good humor and, most of all, sanity. This is the type of sh*t that makes me get back up when life knocks me down on my ass! My kids are my heroes too! They are a great source of wisdom and inspiration. They make be get back up too, (although they are often responsible for knocking me down in the first place :-) They are the lyrics of the greatest love song of all. Everyday. I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 |
