She was a single mom holding her child when she boldly chased the Essence magazine editor into a bathroom to find out how to get published there. And then her career took off–great titles from this woman, Bebe Moore Campbell, a ‘perfectionist with words’who recently died of complications from brain cancer. Love this one: “Successful Women, Angry Men:Backlash in the Two-Career Marriage,” (which doesn’t seem to be for sale on Amazon–find it in a library), and this one for kids with a bipolar parent: “Sometimes My Mommy Gets Angry” (read the touching reviews of this one at Amazon).

Courage. Guts. Passion. Dedication to helping. She exemplified the SWWAN lifestyle.
