and publish a book of poetry. Her book, "Black & Brown Markers," was published in July 2007 and is available at www.PeoplesEducation.com.
The book was distributed at a Marty Lyons Foundation fundraiser, where several of the attendees were well-connected with White House staff. Lauren met Jenna Bush, who was so taken with her story, she invited her to the White House for a poetry reading.
Both Laura and Jenna Bush read selections from the book. Lauren then got to meet with President George W. Bush.
