<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Drawing on papers, letters, journals, and extensive interviews with Walker, her family, friends, and colleagues--and with leading American cultural figures including Gloria Steinem, Quincy Jones, and Oprah Winfrey--White assesses one of the most influential writers of modern time.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Alice Walker's life is remarkable not only because she was the first black woman to win the Pulitzer Prize in fiction (the book that won her that award, <em>The Color Purple</em>, has been translated into nearly thirty languages and made into an Academy Award-nominated film), but also because these accomplishments are merely highlights of a luminous and varied career made from inauspicious beginnings in rural Georgia. Drawing on extensive interviews and exhaustive research, Evelyn C. White brings this life to light.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"White's attentiveness to personal stories as well as their historical context is the greatest achievement of this important work. ... An invaluable contribution to our understanding of a major author."<br>
