Sheri Booker

Sheri Booker, who received her MFA from Goucher in 2007, has won an NAACP Image Award for her memoir Nine Years Under, which began as her Goucher manuscript. From the Image Awards: “Sheri’s Booker’s dazzling début memoir is a fascinating and darkly funny coming-of-age story about Sheri’s nine years—beginning when she was just 15 years old—working in a black funeral home in Baltimore.”
