Autorenporträt
Dirk Young was born in Newcastle, England on May 15th, 1980. He was raised by his mother and father until they separated. His father was deported from Canada while dating his Canadian mother prior to his birth. She left her family and friends to relocate to England with his father. Dirk was 7 years old when his father left. He grew up as an only child of a single parent and they both struggled, surviving on government assistance. When Dirk turned 14 years old, he and his mother decided to start a new life in Canada. In December 1994, they moved to Canada. After his 15th birthday, he ran away from home. By his 17th birthday, he was a member of a gang. Five days after his 21st birthday, a killing occurred that sent a shock wave through his community. By his 23rd birthday he was charged with first-degree murder and 3 years later, in 2006, he was convicted. Mr. Young served 15 years in several Canadian penitentiaries. In 2017, at the age of 37, Dirk was released on parole and must remain on parole for the remainder of his natural life. Dirk Young is the author of the book named Under, Over or Through it. His book does not glorify the gang life or violence. A killing, a murder trial, and his incarceration are only pieces of the whole picture he paints for the reader.
