About the Author
Jonathan Eig is a former senior writer for The Wall Street Journal and a New York Times bestselling author of several books that have been listed among the best of the year by The Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, Sports Illustrated, and Slate. In this landmark biography, winner of the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for Biography and finalist for the 2023 National Book Critics Circle Award, Eig gives us an MLK for our times: a deep thinker, a brilliant strategist, and a committed radical who led one of history’s greatest movements, and whose demands for racial and economic justice remain as urgent today as they were in his lifetime.
