Description
Zora Neale Huston was born in Florida in 1891 and grew up in a tight knit black community. Her happy childhood ended when her mother died in 1904. Zora did not get along with her father’s new wife, and she took on several menial jobs, not graduating from high school until 1918 where she had to lie about her age in order to receive free public schooling (she was 26 at the time). She received her Associate’s degree from Howard University, and a degree in Anthropology from Barnard College.
Zora published her first story in 1921, and began winning awards for her work in 1925. Her career spanned over 30 years, and she published four novels, two books of folklore, an autobiography, and several essays, articles, and plays. Yet she never received the financial compensation she deserved. Novelist Alice Walker, who was inspired by Zora’s work, traveled to Florida in 1973 to place a marker on Zora’s then unmarked grave which read: “Zora Neale Hurston: A Genius of the South.”
