Hope Joyce Atkinson was born December 10, 1946 in Minnesota, one of six children. Her mother left the family when Hope was age four. Her father tried to keep all of the children together, but soon Hope was placed in a foster home so she was separated from her family at an early age.
Atkinson was anxious to leave the foster home and looked for any way to achieve independence. When she was sixteen, she joined the Merchant Marines and worked on the ore boats on the Great Lakes for many years (showing 500 of 1607 characters). |
