In short, it is not a very empathetic portrayal of Phyllis Hyman, and I think that it is slanderous. Born in Philadelphia in 1949 (and raised in Pittsburgh), her professional career began in New York City where, during an engagement, she was spotted by producer Norman Connors and contemporaries Jean …
Hyman began singing professionally in 1971 as part of the group The New Direction.
She is perhaps best remembered for her signature song, You Know How to Love Me (1979), which was the title track from her fourth album and which peaked at #6 on the disco chart that year.

The book entitled Strength of a Woman: the Phyllis Hyman Story, is written by Jason A. Michael in cooperation with the Estate of Phyllis Hyman. The book mentions Hyman’s relationships with both men and women. Phyllis Linda Hyman (July 6 1949 - June 30, 1995), was born in Philadelphia, and grew up in Pittsburgh. Nationality and Ethnicity: African American Deep-voiced and statuesque, Phyllis Hyman sang with a life-affirming energy and emotional intensity found in few other female vocalists. With Dyana Williams, Regina Belle, Nicholas Caldwell, Wallace 'Scotty' Scott. A journey through a disastrous 59-year marriage. Directed by Cindy Kleine. In September 2007, an authorized biography was released.
