Antonne Marquis Jones, (born April 23, 1972) is an American book publisher, author, screenwriter, and film producer. He has garnered much critical acclaim for his pioneering of urban fictional literature 'street lit' during the late 1990s. Antonne has been awarded the key to the city in Lubbock, Texas and graced many best seller lists for his work. He is noted as the first independent publisher to secure a distribution deal with Ingram Book Company, the biggest wholesalers in the United States. ==Early life== Antonne Jones was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1972. His mother, Mardrena Jones was a legal secretary and prolific writer born in Philadelphia. His father, Marvin Thomas was a SEPTA bus operator born in South Carolina and raised in Philadelphia. Jones attended grammar school at Sacred Heart of Jesus then the prestigious Roman Catholic High School in Center City, Philadelphia. At Roman he played basketball for two years with some of the country's top athletes such as Allan Watkins, Bernard Jones and future Hall of Fame wide receiver, Marvin Harrison. After getting involved with the wrong crowd Jones quit playing basketball and transferred to a local public school.. During this time he also began trafficking in narcotics which eventually lead to him temporally dropping out of school. After getting arrested in 1991, he decided the lifestyle he so desired was no longer for him and returned to school to earn his diploma that same year. "That decision changed my life", Jones later said, because I would have been dead in the direction I was going. Most of the guys I was hanging out with at the time are wasting away in jail today or laying in a graveyard. They were nice guys but fell victim to the streets". After graduating high school he received numerous academic scholarships to various colleges but he chose Arkansas State University in Jonesboro, Arkansas. He stayed there for one year before returning to Philadelphia to find employment to provide for his one-year-old daughter and newborn son. During this time he also attended Cheyney University of Pennsylvania and the Community College of Philadelphia.
