Denée Davis wears her three stars and two bars on her heart as a native Washingtonian. As a child, teachers recognized her ability to write and create in the second grade. She was given Langston Hughes and Judy Blume as a pre-teen and she never stopped reading. Miss Davis has been a life-long lover of fiction and fantasy; however, she saw very few people of color in these stories. She went to college to study filmmaking in Brooklyn, NYC. She’s a cinephile, melophile, photographer and has been given the title of Fashion Yodea. In recent years, Afrofuturism and stories of her people have inspired her first novel, Princes and Savages.
