AN INTERVIEW WITH MAYA ANGELOU 26 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF LITERARY CRITICISM 30 QUOTATIONS 32 INTRODUCTION Maya Angelou is one of those people you wait your entire life to meet, and after you do, you realize just by knowing her, life is worth living. I have not met Dr. Angelou in the flesh, but I have met her through her work, and the love that she shares for humanity. Facts tell the world that Dr. Angelou was born Marguerite Johnson over 70 years ago, but facts can not tell us of the woman she is. Dr. Angelou said: “There's a world of difference between truth and facts. Facts can obscure truth.” One needs only to read parts of her work, or listen to her speak to know that he is in the presence of wisdom. Dr. Angelou embraces life as few have the courage to do, and she tries to impart wisdom upon those who are willing to listen. Hallmark and Dr. Angelou have combined forces to create a Life Mosiac selection of inspirational cards, gifts and wisdom. Dr. Angelou has a variety of publications currently in print, including I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Wouldn’t Take Nothing For My Journey Now, and Heart of a Woman. She has been honored by numerous universities and currently holds a professorship at Wake Forest University in North Carolina, near her residence in Winston-Salem. --Tina L.
