Update: 2015-02-04
Description
Janet Cheatham Bell is a writer, editor and independent scholar, who has pursued her dream of creating and publishing books since 1986. Her first title Famous Black Quotations and some not so famous was self-published that year, and later licensed to Warner Books. Since then she’s published nine additional quotation books. The quotations she identified and compiled have become part of the cultural lexicon and been used in classrooms, books, movies and television series. A former education consultant for the Indiana Department of Education, Janet has also taught African American literature at a number of colleges. In 1995 and 1996 New City, Chicago’s newspaper of literature and the arts, named her to “The Lit 50: Chicago’s Book World, Who Really Counts.” Janet’s coming-of-age memoir, The Time and Place That Gave Me Life, published by Indiana University Press in 2007, was called “one of the best forms of social history.”
