Serena Williams was born in Saginaw, Michigan to Richard Williams and Oracene Price. She is of African American heritage and is the youngest of Oracene's five daughters: half-sisters Yetunde (died September 14, 2003), Lyndrea and Isha Price, and older sister Venus. Her mother raised her five daughters as members of the Jehovah's Witnesses religious group. When the children were young, the family moved to the Los Angeles suburb of Compton, where Serena Williams started playing tennis at the age of four. Her father home-schooled Serena Williams and her sister Venus. To this end, Serena Williams was and remains coached by both her parents.
