Moments With Marianne

Alethea Black was born in Boston and graduated from Harvard. Her father was a mathematician, and for a long time, she believed her name, the Greek word for truth, was his way of tipping his cap to the idea of absolutes. Her first book, a short story collection called I Knew You’d Be Lovely. A three-time MOTH StorySLAM champion, Black lives with her miniature dachshund, Josie, in Los Angeles County, California. https://aletheablack.com
