Aracelis Girmay is a poet, mother, teacher, and editor. She is the author of three books of poems and is the editor of How to Carry Water: Selected Poems of Lucille Clifton. For her poetry, she was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, the Hurston/Wright Award, and the Neustadt International Prize for Literature. She is on the editorial board of the African Poetry Book Fund.
Diana Ejaita ( Olu and Greta, A Day in the Sun ) works as an illustrator and textile designer in Berlin. What sets her illustrations apart is a combination of dramatically contrasting areas of black and white with soft patterns and textures that create images that betray the strength of femininity. Born in Cremona, with Nigerian origins, her aesthetic pays homage to her lineage.
