A journalistic journey by two sisters, who for decades, across continents, chronicled moments of the challenges and triumphs of their lives through poems of faith.

One an Ambassador - an Oxford PHD, a tenured professor of English and former university Chair of Women and Gender Studies.

The other, an Actress, on Broadway, in London’s West End, best known on screen for her role as Nettie in the Steven Spielberg film of the Alice Walker Novel, The Color Purple.

Sunshine is But A Shadow, illuminates the Guiding Light of the two sisters who hail from Ghana, West Africa, where their father was once Head of Government, as they traverse through political exile; through the deaths of loved ones; through tears; through laughter; and all the while fueled by their faith in God.
