Angela Dozier .Loves modeling and singing Attractive Angela Dozier Has Many Diverse Interests By Jalyne Strong Post Staff Writer Attractive Angela Dozier is a 20 year-old young lady with a step up in a business career and many versatile talents which augment her professional life. _____ She’s the office manager for Diamonds Comic Distributors. “We’re a comic book company,” she readily explains. Angela laughs, “Everyone always blocks out comic and concentrates on diamond, when I tell them where I work. But it’s just the opposite. “1 love my jpb,” she tells. She admits It’s an ego booster to be in a position of authority at such a young age. "Before when I was working part-time I had to report to management. Now I am management,” she enthuses. A 1964 graduate of Rutledge College, Angela completed an eight month course, titled, Office Specialist. “The job placement office helped me a lot,” she recalls. “One week after I graduated I was hired as a secretary for the company I now work with. Eventually I moved up to office manager.” She’s been with Diamonds Comic Dis tributors for two years. Her job has not, Angela attests, turned her into a comic book addict. “I don't read them at all,” she smiles. "I have to look over them to familiarize myself with them, but I prefer to read murder mysteries and fiction novels.” Reading is just one of Angela’s many interests. Another is modeling. When she was in high school, she attended Barbizon Modeling School for a short term. Since then she’s appeared in small shows for charity and church programs. Recently she joined Ebony and Ivory Modeling. “I decided to try for something more professional,” Angela points out. “Things are working out well. It's very exciting. “Modeling,” says this week’s beauty, “is like being a star. I love the thrill of being on stage.” And Angela gets her share of the limelight not only through modeling but also when she’s on stage singing gospel with the group Williams k Co. Angela, her four brothers, two sisters, and three musicians with Angela's mother as manager, began Williams Family k Co. about seven years ago. The group disbanded for awhile and just last year reformed with serious goals in mind. “We’re looking forward to recording and concerts,” says Angela. Gospel singing is in Angela's blood. “It’s been like this for generations,” she reveals. “My mother’s family had a group and so did my father’s.” Yet modeling and singing are still not quite enough to fill Angela's schedule. She also writes poetry. While in high school she received an award for writing a poem about one of her teachers. Although, most of the time, the subject of her poems is “love.” Many diverse interests are suitable to a young lady, like Angela, who describes herself as “real ambitious.” “I’m looking into a lot of things. I’m 20-years-old now and want to be established by 25 with my own business,” she claims. This week's beauty has been helped along in her ambitions by her mother, Lucy, who is the person she most admires. “She's always been there for me, helping me all the time.” Her mother was especially there for Angela when Angela became pregnant in high school and married soon after graduation. “She knew my ambitions and she encouraged me to still go after them,” Angela remembers. Married to James, ■ with one son James Jr., 2-years-old, Angela says she is also- fortunate that her husband has been very supportive. “He knojvs what I want, not only for myself but for our family,” she states. To be a young mother, says Angela, is "hard.” “Truthfully,” she confesses, “I had to learn how to raise a child when I was still trying to raise myself.” Asked to give her advice to other young mothers, Angela declined saying she’d rather give a word of caution to young girls who’ve yet to become mothers. “Being a mother is not easy,” she notes. "Before you become involved with someone, you need to think about it. And if you do, use birth control. Because after you have a child, you always have to put that child first for the rest of your life. So before you do something, think past the fun of the moment.” Fortunately, overall, things have turned out well for this week’s beauty. But she admits that she has had to make many sacrifices.
