| Northwestern alum (College of Arts & Sciences, 1977) intended to be a doctor until she was turned to literature by visiting professors Margaret Walker and Hoyt Williams Fuller. The Chicago Sun-Times voted her first poetry collection, Dark Legs and Silk Kisses: The Beatitudes of the Spinners one of the four best Chicago books of 1993, calling it a compendium of exquisite poetry about race, women and spiritual experience." Her second collection of poetry, And All These Roads Be Luminous, was recently published by NU's TriQuarterly Books imprint. Jackson still lives in Chicago, sharing the house in which she grew up with her family.
