Alicia A. Mercer, or Tish, as she was known, was a labor negotiator with Greyhound Bus Company during one of the largest strikes in their history. She worked diligently with the Harold Washington Campaign and later became a big part of his transition team. When Tish Mercer entered a room, corporate America listened. A Worm Blanket, Celebration of Life is a loving memoir of her life written by her sister, Pamela Mercer. This is inspiring memoir also includes loving remembrances for many of her friends. A. Tish Mercer was the Director of Human Resources with the Chicago Housing Authority for many years. She was also the Managing Director and CEO of ATM Global Resources developing and building international relationships. ATM Global Resources epitomized the work that Alicia 'Tish' Mercer was known for throughout her career. The ATM Biography pages can be seen in the content of this manuscript. She had an impact on so many people, helping to move them into not just jobs, but careers. Pamela shares some of the most important journeys of Tish’s life, from her independency youth to her productive and powerful reign in corporate America as a leader in human resources. Tish always lead by example and always treated people the way she wanted to be treated-she was there to help others get back up on their feet if they were down. A Warm Blanket is about who Tish Mercer was, but it is also a celebration of how she impacted the hearts and memories of anyone she met or worked with over the years.
