SuAndi was born in Hulme, Manchester, with absolutely no aspirations to be a writer, she literally walked into the arts as a model and the poet was quick to follow.
She is the Cultural Director of Black Arts Alliance, a recipient of a NESTA Dreamtime award, and was awarded an OBE in the Queen’s Honours list for her contributions to the Black Arts Sector in 1999.
A unique opportunity to listen to SuAndi share writings and reflections from a career of over thirty years.
