At age 30, she didn't want to be on this earth.
But, she directed all her passion into doing the one thing she could do better than anyone else.
And that was writing.

At age 31, she finally published her first book.

At age 35, she had released 4 books, and was named Author of the Year.

Never give up. Believe in yourself. Be passionate. Work hard. It’s never too late.

"I had been on assignment at a Detroit Montessori school for two days, and shot hundreds of photos. Some were very good, but I knew I hadn't gotten THE shot. That afternoon, as we all sat on the floor in a circle listening to a story, I bowed my head. When I raised my head, this little girl leaned over to lay her head on the little boy's lap. He very gently lifted his arm to receive her. I call this photo 'The Age of Innocence." ❤️

In Person County, North Carolina, a to***co sharecropper's daughter performs a daily task that reflects the challenging life of rural farming families during the Great Depression. In the photograph, she is seen collecting eggs from the henhouse, a modest but vital chore in a household where every resource counts. The henhouse, surrounded by the natural landscape, is a crucial part of the family's self-sustaining farm. Just beyond it, the enclosure for the family's pig can be seen, another source of food and income. For sharecroppers like this family, the land they worked was often not their own, and the economic pressures of tenant farming made it difficult to break free from poverty. To***co, the primary crop, was labor-intensive and had a volatile market. The presence of the children, especially the daughter, indicates the importance of their help in maintaining the household's basic needs, from food to animal care. The rural setting, with the pine trees in the background, underscores the simplicity of the family's life, while also highlighting the hardships they endured. Despite the limited resources, families like these were resilient, using whatever means they had to survive and make the best of their difficult circumstances during one of the most economically challenging periods in American history.
