About GoGo Michelle

Michelle L. Smith was born and raised by her mother and father in the northwest section of Washington, D.C. She is the offspring of a multiracial background of African, Polish, French and Cherokee Indian ancestries. She is a graduate with honors from Howard University. Her Bachelor’s degree was earned in the study of Communications, specializing in radio production. Michelle worked as an on-air talent at Glasshouse Radio on the campus of Howard University for three years. Her format, which started out as the "all news" hour, quickly became an entertainment segment in which she interviewed local indie artists as well as national recording artists. In addition, Michelle has earned her Master of Arts degree in History at Howard University. As a compassionate and loving woman, her academic and research interests are studying slavery of African Americans in the U.S. and the effects of it. Working as a medical professional for several years of her life, Michelle decided that she wanted a career change in an effort to use her vocal talents to make changes within the white and black communities in the United States and possibly abroad. She has produced her first album called, Have You Seen Gogo, which was released in 2008 (itunes & cdbaby.com). In addition, she is the author of her first book released in 2003 called, Playing Your Game. It is a non-fiction work that talks about the struggles of a marriage relationship and the effects this had on a good strong wholesome woman, herself.
