About this book

Paris Noir: African Americans in the City of Light by Stovall, Tyler. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780395683996.

Stovall (history, U. of California-Santa Cruz) fills a large gap in the study of American expatriots by chronicling the changing but steady presence of African American artists who fled racial oppression for the freedom of the French capital during the 20th century. Writers Richard Wright and James Baldwin, musicians Miles Davis and Charlie Parker, dancer Josephine Baker, and painters Henry Assawa Tanner and Lons Mailou Jones are among those who appear.
