Joanne Mattern
Florence Price (1887-1953), an American composer and pianist, was a trailblazer as the first African American woman to gain recognition in classical music.
Her compositions, blending traditional Western styles with African American influences, include symphonies, chamber works, and the acclaimed Symphony No. 1. Price's legacy continues to inspire diversity in classical music.

"[T]his is an overwhelmingly dynamic and captivating biography of a woman whose life and work should be more widely known. An ideal introduction to a Black female pioneer and her work."—Kirkus Reviews
