Author Catherine Reef paints a rich and memorable portrait of the first African American to earn his living as a writer. "I know why the caged bird sings," wrote Paul Laurence Dunbar in "Sympathy," one of his best-loved poems. Born in 1872 to former slaves, Dunbar touched the nation with poetry that portrayed the sorrows and the joys of African-American life.
