THE ONLY THING MORE IMPORTANT THAN FAME WAS FAMILY....... After becoming the most successful child actor in Hollywood and the roles becoming scarce and more derogatory, a successful black actress moves back to her hometown to escape the insanity of the business, mend her now broken family, find positive role models for her children, and rear them in a less fake and hostile environment. Along the way we witness a once prominent community falling from grace, a younger sister broken by abusive relationships, a rebellious brother turned criminal, a widowed mother losing her faith, and a strong African American couple rising above foolishness. Will her former hometown rise above poverty and adversity? Can a sister damaged by cruel and abusive men learn to love herself? Will the rebellious, criminal, brother walk the straight and narrow? Can a widowed mother be reborn? Will her daughter find happiness? Can a black woman shine? These questions and more are answered in When a Black Woman Shines, an in depth look into one woman's journey to find peace and happiness, while becoming the best version of herself. A MUST READ!!!
