Through poetry, prose, and drama, American writer James Langston Hughes made important contributions to the Harlem renaissance; his best-known works include Weary Blues (1926) and The Ways of White Folks (1934).
People best know this social activist, novelist, playwright, and columnist James Mercer Langston Hughes, one of the earliest innovators of the then-new literary art form jazz poetry, for his famous written work about the period, when "Harlem was in vogue."
This was a great book written by Langston Hughes about Jazz in the form of a poetry for younger kids. I liked the Jazz pictures, both kid of historical and modern pictures of Jazz. My daughter really loved the premise of a different genre of music as well!
