Here’s a one-stop resource, containing 100 profiles of favourite contemporary African American writers, along with complete lists of their works.

Short profiles provide an overview of the author’s life and summarize his or her writing accomplishments. Many are accompanied by black-and-white phots of the author. The biographies are followed by a complete list of the author’s published works.
