NATIONAL BOOK AWARD NOMINEE - The riveting history of how Pauli Murray--a brilliant writer-turned-activist--and First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt forged an enduring friendship that helped to alter the course of race and racism in America. "A definitive biography of Murray, a trailblazing legal scholar and a tremendous influence on Mrs. Roosevelt." --Essence In 1938, the twenty-eight-year-old Pauli Murray wrote a letter to the President and First Lady, Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, protesting racial segregation in the South. Eleanor wrote back. So began a friendship that would last for a quarter of a century, as Pauli became a lawyer, principal strategist in the fight to protect Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and a co-founder of the National Organization of Women, and Eleanor became a diplomat and first chair of the United Nations Commission on Human Rights.
This is the first biography in English of an uncommon American, Dr. David Murray, a professor of mathematics at Rutgers College, who was appointed by the Japanese government as Superintendent of Education in the Empire of Japan in 1873. The founding of the Gakusei—the first public school system launched in Japan—marks the beginning of modern education in Japan, accommodating all children of elementary school age. Murray’s unwavering commitment to its success renders him an educational pioneer in Japan in the modern world. Benjamin Duke has compiled this comprehensive biography of David Murray to showcase Murray’s work, both in assisting around 100 samurai students in their studies at Rutgers, and in his unprecedented role in early Japanese-American relations. This fascinating story uncovers a little-known link between Rutgers University and Japan, and it is the only book to conclude that Rutgers made a greater contribution to the development of modern education in the early Meiji Era than any other non-Japanese college or university in the world.
Drawing on archives of libraries in Dublin, New York City and Boston, DeGiacomo assesses T.C. Murray's contribution to the Irish dramatic movement. One of the ""Cork Realists"" of the Abbey Theatre, Murray wrote 17 plays in one, two or three acts. A prominent national teacher and a seemingly apolitical playwright in the Irish Literary Revival, Murray expressed nationalistic aspirations in his peasant tragedies. His characters' drive for self-determination and their religious consciousness mark Murray's dramatic landscape. Murray reveals his life in voluminous correspondence with friends, family members and the glitterati of Dublin. A Roman Catholic, Murray tells his ""outsider"" story of the Abbey Theatre, ruled by members of the Protestant, Anglo-Irish ascendancy. W.B. Yeats, Lady Gregory and Lennox Robinson fill his world, as do later figures like Ernest Blythe. Murray's association with the amateur dramatic societies reveals yet another dimension of his commitment to Irish drama. This text, largely a work of theatre history, spans Murray's life and career from 1878 to 1959, and highlights Murray's plays on Abbey tours of America from 1911 to 1935.

No One Will Ever Believe You: Poems About Bill Murray

"To call this simply a Bill Murray tribute would do a disservice to all the layers of this book-it is a love story, it is a charming display of Stripling's extensive Murray knowledge, and it's an examination of the human condition. Stripling writes lust, love, loneliness, joy, and personal anecdote with an effervescence, an unmistakably fizzy language that delights and throws its reader into a fit of glee and contemplation simultaneously."- Ashley Jones, editor, PANK Magazine" The poems in this collection] are smoky rooms and sweet vermouth, words on diner napkins and lipstick kisses. They are cool to the touch, easy to get lost in. Just like the movies, Shea has created a poetry collection that is memorable and playful and dizzy."- Carlotta Eden, co-founder & editor, Synaesthesia Magazine
