Angela Medearis, Real Author
"I have published about 75 books. When my daughter started to read, and then when my granddaughter arrived, I didn't want them to go through the same thing [that I went through] — never seeing any positive reflection of [themselves] in the things that [they] read. I wanted a little girl to be able to open up a book and find [that] the woman who was the object of desire, the woman who was the princess, was black. I wanted that."
