Description
    Frieda grew up in Pittsburgh, PA. She and her five brothers were the offspring of a wayward mother (Hetty "Etta" Brown), who, with an admitted "drinking problem" and a lustful spirit, spend most days in liquor bars, chasing men. Etta's willful neglect left her children to fend for themselves against the harsh and unforgiving elements of their urban streets; streets overrun with predators.
     Climbing the Broken Stairs, is an inspiring true-life account of one person's struggle to overcome child abuse (most of which having occurred within the families), and maintain the belief that a better life was possible, if she could first break free from a dysfunctional environment.
