Maya Angelou was a celebrated American poet, memoirist, and civil rights activist mainly known for her seven autobiographies—but she also had an extremely colourful life, rising from the hardscrabble Depression-era South to become a pimp, a sex worker, a supper club chanteuse, and friends of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcom X, as well as a journalist in Egypt and Ghana. She is one of the most prolific writers of the 20th century. #WikiSleep #MayaAngelou #Sleep
