ABOUT
CARMEN
Carmen
Rubin is a native of San Francisco, California and
is the first of three children. As a child, she always enjoyed reading
and singing. She recalls spending days in the summer, using unwanted
assignment sheets given by her teachers, to teach neighborhood friends
and the kids in her family. She also has fond memories of singing
with her family at the piano.
Carmen has always had a fascination with how stories are told. She
understood early, the power of a Word. Whether it was communicated
through a book, song, dramatization, instrument, or a simple conversation
at the kitchen table, it was clear to her, that words had life;
and what we do with them is vital!
At 12 years old Carmen had her first life changing moment. She realized
her position as a child of God. At that moment is when she knew
that she could accomplish the most difficult challenges life offered,
and that every dream would become a reality.
The Author and Singer has taken her challenges and used them as
tools to build her life and the lives of others. Carmen's dreams
have taken her to the stage of singing with her favorite vocalists,
seeing the world, meeting great leaders, teaching the most beautiful
children, and playing an integral part in her world, church, and
community. She fully understands that to whom much is given, much
is required.
Carmen
Rubin is the founder of the Community Refuge Education and Recreation
Center, a Non-profit organization for youth grades K-12 that exposes
children to higher learning. Carmen is also the President of the
PEPPERMINT CANDY PUBLISHING COMPANY.
Carmen's
voice is used as an instrument to heal, and her books, while doing
the same, also promotes literacy for children across the world.
