Mark Anthony, a visual artist from Durham, North Carolina, is a single mother of three children. She clarified her unique name, “Yes, my name is Mark Anthony. And yes, it’s bona fide. It’s not some eccentric stage name.” The story goes that Anthony’s dad, along with friends from a party, went to the hospital when her mom was in labor. “My dad was determined I was a going to be a boy because he had the name already picked out. Yeah, it has definitely given me some grand tales to tell.”

Anthony has lived a nomad lifestyle. “I have moved all over, finding that I’m obsessed with my hair flying in the wind and exploring new destinations,” she added. On a whim, she took off to a Caribbean Island, knowing no one. She also spent time in Culebra, Puerto Rico. Explaining the desire to move around, Anthony said, “I just go where I feel like I’m needed.”
