Toni Morrison
Toni Morrison, a Pulitizer Prize winning author, has written powerful novels that are as much social commentary as they are excellent storytelling. Morrison was born Chloe Anthony Wofford in Loraine, Ohio, in 1931. She attended Howard University, then received a master's degree in English at Cornell University, where she wrote a thesis on William Faulkner. Faulkner's influence is easy to see in many of her novels, especially her seventh novel, Paradise.
Morrison was also an English and writing professor at several different universities as well as working as a textbook editor for Random House.
