Developments in the world of Florence Mills lore may not happen at the frenetic pace of the modern media but there are plenty of things happening from time to time so I hope to update this page regularly.
The previous editions of news can be seen still at Archive No. 1, No. 2 , No.3 , No.4 , No.5 , No.6 , No.7, No.8 , NO.9 and No.10Yet another Florence Mills children's book, within the space of a few months!
At last Florence is being re-discovered.
The latest is a Random House publication due in October
Written by Renee Watson Illustrated by Christian RobinsonBoth new children's books are complementary, as Baby Flo (see below) deals with Florence's early childhood, while Harlem's Little Blackbird covers her later years
Both would be excellent presents for a young niece or nephew or grandchild
Subtitle: Florence Mills Lights up
