Sorry for the cross post.
I'm booktalking ethnic authors tomorrow (persons not American or if they are
American they also have a hyphen in front Asian-, Native-, etc.) and would
like to know the ethnicity of E. R. Frank author of Life is Funny and
America. I haven't read the first but loved the second and would like to
add it to a multicultural list but I can't add to this one until I know her
ethnicity. I've tried several search engines, the publisher's website and
some databases.
Please don't spam me about the type of talk it is; it is what the teacher
requested. Part of the assignment is to comment on why the student thinks
the author's ethnicity influenced actions of characters in the books, or if
it makes a difference.
Can anyone help?
I highly recommend America as a sad yet inspiring read.
