| Abstract | Educator and artist Daniel Texidor Parker was born on January 6, 1941 in Chicago, Illinois and grew up in the Bronzeville neighborhood. Parker attended DuSable High School, where he took art classes with Margaret Burroughs, a co-founder of the DuSable Museum of African American History. In 1964, he earned his B.A. degree in education from Chicago State University. Parker earned his M.A. degree in psychology from Roosevelt University in 1967, going on to work as a counselor and educator in both the Chicago Public Schools and Chicago City College systems for thirty-five years. In 1989, Parker received a Distinguished Professor award from the board of the Chicago City College system for his work at Olive-Harvey College. An African art enthusiast and expert, Parker collected more than 400 works over a thirty-year period.
