Eatonville Restaurant presents Zora Neale Hurston biographer Valerie Boyd this Sunday. Boyd is the author of Wrapped In Rainbows: The Life of Zora Neale Hurston and is currently finishing her next book, Spirits in the Dark: The Untold Story of Black Women in Hollywood.
An accomplished journalist and cultural critic, Boyd is the former arts editor at The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and has been published in numerous anthologies, magazines and newspapers.
