If you've read a book by an Emory author, chances are good that Amy Benson Brown had a hand in it. Brown leads the Author Development Program at Emory helping professors transform research and concepts into books.

But for the last 10 years, Brown's had an ambitious project of her own: a book of poetry in the voice of 19th-century abolitionist Sarah Grimké.
