From I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.
Maya Angelou ( 1928- )
Maya Angelou is among the best known African American writers. She was asked to read at President Clinton`s inauguration, the first time a poet had been so honored since Robert Frost read at President Kennedy`s inauguration. Born into poverty in rural Arkansas, an unwed mother at sixteen, Angelou nevertheless became a dancer, singer, actress, poet, and playwright. She is currently the Reynolds Professor of American Studies at Wake Forest University.
