Biography
Amber McBride is an award-winning author and poet who writes for both children and adults--often referring to herself as a folklorist.
She is also an herbalist and practices Hoodoo (an African American folk-magick practice). McBride was an assistant professor for a decade at The University of Virginia and James Madison University before she started writing full time.
McBride earned her MFA with a concentration in poetry from Emerson College in Boston and went on to intern at the Furious Flower Poetry Center where she helped to put on programs honoring Black poets and writers like Toni Morrison and Maya Angelou.
Amber McBride believes in magick, Hoodoo, ghosts and all the things you can't see, but most of all she believes in you!
