J. Walker. A former ABC News Washington, DC, deputy bureau chief and an Emmy Award–winning producer, she participated in residencies at Yaddo and MacDowell while writing Joy Goddess. Visit her website at ALeliaBundles.com or on Instagram at @ALeliaBundles.ABOUT Dubbed the “joy goddess of Harlem’s 1920s” by poet Langston Hughes, A’Lelia Walker, daughter of millionaire entrepreneur Madam C.J. Walker and the author’s great-grandmother and namesake, is a fascinating figure whose legendary parties and Dark Tower salon helped define the Harlem Renaissance.After inheriting her mother’s hair care enterprise, A’Lelia would become America’s first high profile black heiress and a prominent patron of the arts. Joy Goddess takes readers inside her three New York homes—a mansion, a townhouse, and a pied-a-terre—where she entertained Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, Paul Robeson, Florence Mills, James Weldon Johnson, Carl Van Vechten, W.E.B. DuBois, and other cultural, social and intellectual luminaries of the Roaring Twenties.Now, based on extensive research and Walker’s personal correspondence, her great-granddaughter creates a meticulous, nuanced portrait of a charismatic woman struggling to define herself as a wife, mother, and businesswoman outside her famous mother’s sphere. In Joy Goddess, A’Lelia’s radiant personality and impresario instincts—at the center of a vast, artistic social world where she flourished as a fashion trendsetter and international traveler—are brought to vivid and unforgettable life.ABOUT Tiffany Gill is a professor of history at Rutgers will a specialty in Black history and the beauty industry and the author of . - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/philadelphia/alelia-bundles-celebrates-joy-goddess-on-june-12th-bandn-philly/100001320158271929 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, business, health-wellness, parties, entertainment - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Philadelphia - **state**: PA - **country**: United States - **location**: Barnes & Noble - Philadelphia - **lat**: 39.9514165 - **long**: -75.16919539999999 - **full address**: Barnes & Noble - Philadelphia, 1708 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: A'Lelia Bundles celebrates Joy Goddess on June 12th - B&N Philly - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/10fc81a38e28f9fbe2e7f81134ea8ca7bc31ab79a0e36b380704d116c65184ff-rimg-w1200-h600-dce6ddc9-gmir.jpg?v=1745273496 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is A'Lelia Bundles celebrates Joy Goddess on June 12th - B&N Philly being held? - **A:** A'Lelia Bundles celebrates Joy Goddess on June 12th - B&N Philly takes place on Thu, 12 Jun, 2025 at 06:00 pm to Thu, 12 Jun, 2025 at 07:30 pm at Barnes & Noble - Philadelphia, 1708 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing A'Lelia Bundles celebrates Joy Goddess on June 12th - B&N Philly? - **A:** A'Lelia Bundles celebrates Joy Goddess on June 12th - B&N Philly is organized by Barnes & Noble - Philadelphia. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
