Review

“A really insightful book! … The information is clear cut and fairly easy to understand, and each page has a illustrated picture of the person being described. It melded together the amazing stories of not only some of the most famous African American people in American history, but also many of the stories that are not always told.” ― Granite School District

Briana Arrington is a Philadelphia born and based Illustrator and Graphic Designer. She obtained her BFA in Fine Arts from the Maryland Institute and College of Art in 2017. Briana’s work includes pieces of her identity as she is a firm believer in the fact that representation matters. She is always hoping that her work reaches someone who may look like her, see the world like her or has gone through similar experiences. When her hand is not attached to creating you can find her aggressively playing volleyball with a city league or having a good cry or hardy laugh to a movie marathon. Ms. Arrington is also an amateur food connoisseur. Philadelphia is a diverse table of foods and she intends to try as much as stomach can handle in and out of her own kitchen. Briana is joyful and loves to laugh. It is the best medicine after all.
