Hurston Branch Library
3008 Avenue D, Ft Pierce 34947
"With four published novels, two collections of folklore, a collection of short stories, numerous essays and journal articles,
and several musical and dramatic productions, Zora Neale Hurston was one of the most industrious and prolific writers of her day.
Her achievements can be measured against her ability to survive engulfing poverty and to resist stereotypical images of black womanhood."
Deborah G. Plant, 1995
