Summary

Though born and raised in Detroit, it was in Atlanta that playwright and author Pearl Cleage encountered the forces that would most shape her experience. Married to Michael Lomax, she worked with Atlanta's first African-American mayor Maynard Jackson. Here Cleage charts not only the political fights but also the pull she began to feel on her own passions -- a pull that led her away from Lomax as she grappled with ideas of feminism and self-fulfillment
