==Personal life==
Born in Chicago, Illinois, Bailey grew up in Los Angeles, California.〔〔Fuller, H.W. "Editor's Notes." ''Negro Digest'' 16.9 (1967):4.〕 He received his education from Alabama State College and then attended Howard University where he studied under Alain Locke, Sterling Brown and James A. Porter.〔 He obtained his MFA at the University of Southern California.〔 At Alabama he received commissions for large paintings and murals as a student. He was described as a "black bohemian" at the time, often seen wearing a beret, talking jive, carrying a bottle "in one pocket" and talking about music and art.〔
While living in Atlanta his studio space was located at the Institute of the Black World's second building. He lived at Paschal's Motor Lodge Hotel, where if he was unable to make rent he would trade artwork with one of the Paschal brothers in exchange. Bailey spoke with slurred speech, which was due to his heavy use of drugs and alcohol. Bailey was described as taking pills then drinking, spending his money on "a full pint of scotch" or vodka.〔 Herman "Kofi" Bailey died in 1981 in Atlanta, Georgia.
