The Hurston/Wright Foundation

Hurston/Wright - Discovering, Mentoring, and Honring A World of Black Writers

In 1990, the Zora Neale Hurston/Richard Wright Foundation was created as the only 501c3 organization of its kind to discover, develop and honor Black authors of fine literature, nonfiction works and poetry. Named after Zora Neale Hurston (Their Eyes Were Watching God) and Richard Wright (Native Son) - two literary icons from the Harlem Renaissance - Hurston/Wright has mentored and awarded hundreds of teen and adult writers across the country with workshops, financial awards and scholarships.
