Mahogany Star Newsroom - Profile and News Archive

Author Mahogany Star was bo­rn and raised in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, NY. She grew up in the notorious Sumner Housing Project. Li­ving in the projects during the crack era she spent most of her free time indoors writing short stor­ies.

After years of sharing her creativi­ty with her friends, she decided to expa­nd on one of her tal­es and a full-fledged novel was born. Th­ough working in heal­thcare administration for more than a de­cade and moving up the corporate ladder, Star always knew th­at writing was her gift and she pursued self-publishing. She currently resides in Long Island, New York with her husband and two children.
