Meet Issue 6 Beauty Contributor Daisy Brown:

Daisy Brown is a self-taught photographer born and raised in the Sandtown-Winchester community of Baltimore City. Growing up with a mom who loved documenting family moments, capturing everything from reunions to school events and going to department stores for family portraits. She was always surrounded by a camera, photo albums and pictures on the walls of her family home on Fulton Avenue in West Baltimore. It wasn’t until the 4th grade that Daisy realized what she wanted to capture. With limited access to travel, she started taking pictures during school field trips, her neighborhood, and holidays with family. Just like mom she always has had a camera or a camcorder nearby, a young photojournalist if you will. Mom nurtured her love of photography and was grateful for the seed planted to pursue her passion.

This week on Substack, I am reflecting on how my ancestral roots have influenced me as a storyteller and informed my style as a writer. If you’ve ever felt like your words could be a portal to the experiences of your ancestors, I recommend you check out the post! Have you ever been inspired to write by your ancestors? That can even be our literary ancestors. So many of us write poems after lines by Gwendolyn Brooks, Lucille Clifton, or Audre Lorde. Many of us find our most fruitful writing comes from our family stories and the traditions with which we were raised. How do you honor your ancestors in your writing?
