About the Author
Joel Chandler Harris (1848-1908) was born in Eatonton, Georgia. He became a journalist and worked on several southern newspapers. In 1878 he published the first Brer Rabbit stories in the Georgia newspaper The Atlanta Constitution. The tales, narrated by a character named Uncle Remus, received immediate popular acclaim. Soon after, Harris published Uncle Remus: His Songs and His Sayings, the first of eight volumes of folktales that appeared between 1880 and 1918. Together, Harris's writings represent the largest collection of African-American folktales ever published. Karima Amin is a performing storyteller whose retellings reflect the strong oral culture of the original Brer Rabbit tales. She specializes in African and African-American fables and folktales, and is a member of the National Association of Black Storytellers. She has received many awards and honors in her field. Eric Copeland was educated in Britain and has lived in Canada for nearly thirty years. He works from his studio at home in the beautiful countryside near Ontario. Brer Rabbit and his animal friends are frequent visitors to Eric's backyard.
