by Ida Faubert
Ida is an extremely interesting woman and writer. They say that she is Haiti’s first female published writer. She was born in 1882 and published around the turn of the century. Her father was President of Haiti which gave her some opportunities to observe the country and its power structure at the time from up close. She was also a great Haitian feminist who later inspired other wonderful women writers from Haiti.
