About the Author:
Patricia Bell-Scott, professor emerita at the University of Georgia, wrote the award-winning The Firebrand and the First Lady, an account of Murray’s relationship with Eleanor Roosevelt. She is co-editor of the best-selling Doublestitch: Black Women Write About Mothers and Daughters, which earned the Letitia Woods Brown Memorial Prize, and is also co-founding editor of Sage: A Scholarly Journal of Black Women.
Review:
“Intimate, impassioned, often heartbreaking. . . . Reading through it is immensely rewarding―like having an hour-long, tell-all phone conversation with a close friend.”
- Kirkus Reviews

Life Notes is a collection of pieces that are intimate and universal, accessible and profound. Let traditional novelists eat their hearts out―for these women have written their hearts out.”
- Gloria Steinem

“Featured here are works by such well-known authors as bell hooks, Jamaica Kincaid, Rita Dove, Audre Lorde, and Alice Walker, as well as by emerging and previously unpublished writers. The contributors are native daughters from three continents and the Caribbean, ranging in age from eight to sixty. Never in all the years have I encountered as intimate work as Life Notes. Each woman spoke secretly to me and only me, and I appreciated every admission.”
- Maya Angelou
