Brandy K. Nichols was born in September 1970, to Brian Nichols, a Vietnam Veteran, and Vivian Nichols, a high school drop-out. Brian Nichols dies when Brandi was only five years old. Brandi’s mother goes through a few different men and there is no permanent adult male living in the Nichols’ household during many of Brandi’s developmental years. The saga really takes off after Brandi has her first sexual relationship at the age of 15 with a teenage boy one year older. After this relationship goes on for a few months and Brandi perceives the two of them to be a couple, she discovers that this boy already has a steady girlfriend. That she, Brandi, is nothing more than sex to this boy. The experience, coupled with what Brandi could observe from her mother’s life style causes this young girl from Philly to rapidly mature. During a trip over to Atlantic City with her best friend Brandi meets a charismatic teenager from New York City. She eventually becomes emotionally involved with this young man and two years later, in her late teens, Brandi is staying in New York City. The young man Brandi has grown soo close to is part of a very dangerous group of people who are entrenched into criminal behavior. Eventually Brandi finds herself involved with things she never imagined she would be. By the age of 38, after various pitfalls, twists and turns Ms. Brandi K. Nichols becomes a formidable figure in the business world of movers and shakers. She also has a major impact on the lives of people close to her.
