Description: To Be Young, Gifted and Black : Lorraine Hansberry in Her Own Words, Paperback by Nemiroff, Robert; Asher, Marty (EDT); Hansberry, Lorraine, ISBN 0679764151, ISBN-13 9780679764151, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Assembled from plays, essays, letters, drawings, and photographs, this memoir records the passionate engagement and spectacular accomplishment of the playwright of A Raisin in the Sun. It follows Lorraine Hansberry from her childhood in Chicago (where her family encountered vicious resistance when it moved into a white neighborhood), through her arrival in New York, where the triumph of A Raisin in the Sun made her famous virtually overnight, to her death at the tragically early age of thirty-four. Above all, Hansberry's autobiography rings with the voice of its creator: a black woman who could be angry, loving, bitter, touchingly funny, and defiantly proud.
