Non-Fiction Memoir
Most people associate Hill Harper with Hollywood, as he’s
appeared in dozens of films and television shows. But he is
just as comfortable in a school auditorium, rousing groups
of students with his unique style of real-life wisdom.
Having addressed thousands of high-school and middle- school
students over the years, Hill is ready to take his message
to an even wider audience. Letters to a Young Brother is
drawn from the humbling life lessons he learned on the road
to his Ivy League education and beyond. Inspired by the
countless letters and e-mails he has received from teens,
Hill Harper set out to write a series of letters to young
people that would catch the attention of even the most
reluctant readers. The result is a motivational but approachable book full of
encouragement on a wide array of hot topics, particularly
among young African-American and Hispanic men. From the
challenges of getting a good education and making it through
college to the media’s destructive emphasis on material
wealth, Letters to a Young Brother delivers eye-opening
answers. Reminiscent of Marian Wright Edelman’s New York
Times bestseller, The Measure of Our Success: A Letter to My
Children and Yours, Hill Harper’s words will resonate for
years to come.
