Abstract

MJ: I’m going to begin my questions by asking you about that first letter that Yvonne Johnson wrote introducing herself. In the parts you quote in the beginning of Stolen Life she asks for help researching her family’s past and her ancestry. In that first letter there is no mention at all about writing her life story. So that’s what I’d like to ask. How did that initial request for help tracing her ancestry change to the writing of her own life story?
