I'm just Wini from the block. . The Bronx Walk of Fame

I grew up in the Bronx. I consider myself to be a Bronx girl even though Brooklyn is now my home. Yes it has a rough/tough reputation and at times it really was (a couple of guns held to my head and some knives pulled on me, alot of fights ) but it was really a great place to grow up.  Also we have our own Walk of Fame.  Along the Grand Concourse are signs of famous actor's, singers, designers etc. who grew up in the Bronx (make sure you look up). Whenever I take the bus from my dad's house to Manhattan I get a chance to see who has been added. Here are some of my boroughs talent. . 

Stanley Kubrick
Kurtis Blow
Calvin Klein
Ralph Lauren
Anne Bancroft
Jennifer Lopez
Tracy Morgan
Garry Marshall
Valerie Simpson
Afrika Bambaataa
Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five
Rita Moreno
