Carrie Allen McCray
Carrie Allen McCray (October 4, 1913 – July 25, 2008) was an African-American writer born in Lynchburg, Virginia, whose published works include ''Ajös Means Goodbye'' (1966), ''The Black Woman and Family Roles'' (1980), and her first-person memoir, ''Freedom’s Child: The Life of a Confederate General’s Black Daughter'' (1998). Her poems have appeared in such magazines as ''Ms.'' and ''The River Styx''. ''Ota Benga Under My Mother's Roof'', her last collection of poems (edited by Kevin Simmonds) was published by University of South Carolina Press. In October 2007, a theatrical adaptation of the collection (with original music by Simmonds) debuted at the Columbia Museum of Art with McCray as narrator.
McCray was one of the founders and first board members of the ''South Carolina Writers Workshop'', and was the namesake for its literary award. She was also a member of the Board of Governors of the South Carolina Academy of Authors.
McCray, who made her home in Columbia, South Carolina, since 1986, was the widow of John H. McCray, a South Carolina journalist and civil and political rights activist. She died on July 25, 2008, aged 94.
==Quote==
"I never thought of myself as a writer — only as a social worker and teacher who wrote and loved to write. For me, it had to be validated. It took ''Freedom’s Child'' to do that."
