Alice Malsenior Tallulah-Kate Walker (born 1944) is an American novelist, short story writer, poet, and social activist. Over the span of her career, Walker has published seventeen novels and short story collections, twelve non-fiction works, and collections of essays and poetry. Walker has been defined as one of the key international writers? of the 20th century. Walker made history as the first African-American woman to win a Pulitzer Prize for Literature as well as the National Book Award in 1983 for her novel The Color Purple, one of the few literary books to capture the popular imagination and leave a permanent imprint. The award-winning novel served as the inspiration for Steven Spielberg?s 1985 film.…
