  • About the Contributor(s) Alice Randall was born in Detroit and graduated from Harvard in 1981. She is the author of the New York Times best-selling The Wind Done Gone which was awarded Best Fiction by The Washington Post (2004), Best Fiction by The Los Angeles Times (2004) and Best of African American Fiction by BORDERS (2004). She has also been awarded the 'Free Spirit Award' and the 'Literature Award of Excellence' by the Memphis Black Writers Conference, and she was a finalist for the NAACP Image Award in 2002.  In addition to her books, Alice is the only African-American woman ever to write a #1 country song. Over the course of her songwriting career, she has had songs recorded by a widely varied group of artists ranging from Glen Campbell, Steve Earle, and Trisha Yearwood to Adrienne Young, Marie Osmond, and Mark O'Connor. She is also a screenwriter and has worked on adaptations of Their Eyes Were Watching God, Parting the Waters, and Brer Rabbit. She is a frequent contributor to Elle magazine, for whom she profiled Missy Elliot among others. She has also had published articles in The Los Angeles Times and O magazine.

    Carter Little is a professional songwriter, performer and film composer living in Nashville, Tennessee.  He has split his time between fronting various old-time, honky-tonk and roots bands in New York City and Music City, including the critically acclaimed, Saddlesong, and producing original music for theatre and film.  He released his fourth album, 'Dare To Be Small' to much applause in 2005, and in 2006, wrote and produced the score for Original Media's feature film, The Living Wake.

    Courtney Little is a singer/songwriter who resides in Nashville. Prior to moving to Music City, Little lived in NYC and worked for Oscar-winning documentarian Ken Burns and Oscar award winning score producer Mathias Gohl. While he favors Haggard, his chocolate lab, Celia prefers Dolly through and through.
