Myers was born Martinsburg, West Virginia, when he was two years old, his mother died in childbirth giving birth to his younger sister. Due to his already large family, Myers's father then gave him over to his first wife and her husband, who lived in Harlem, New York. During his childhood, he found refuge in his neighborhood and church which protected him, and developed his interest in writing. He was frustrated by the lack of books for children of color, after reading ''Literature/SonnysBlues'' by Creator/JamesBaldwin, he started writing about his own experiences growing up.
Myers has written over 1000 stories and books within ChildrensLiterature, MiddleGradeLiterature, and YoungAdultLiterature and is known as one of the most prolific children's book authors. He passed away on July 1, 2014 after a brief illness.
