Her mother was a former school teacher who had chosen that field because she could not afford to attend medical school. When Brooks was six weeks old, her family moved to Chicago, Illinois during the Great Migration; from then on, Chicago was her hometown. She went by the nickname "Gwendie" among her close friends.
