James D. Sanders is an American author of fiction. He was born and raised by a single grandmother in some of the tougher parts in the small town of Saginaw, Michigan. While possessing some of the harshest areas (multiple listings on the FBI’s reporting of most dangerous cities), the experiences of growing up in the city have produced some of the most talented and hardest working people in the country. It was his upbringing through these same experiences that helped mold James into the man he is today.
