Andrea Morehead-Allen & Her Father James Morehead Wrote A Children’s Book Together Called, “The Brightest Star”About the book:”
James Morehead and his daughter Andrea Morehead, an Emmy-award winning television journalist and author, weave a phenomenal true story of courage, resiliency, and perseverance navigating through life with albinism. They cleverly use poetry to explain how and why James’ exterior color is white although he’s African-American.”
