Margaret Walker (1915- ) Margaret Walker was born in Birmingham, Alabama in 1915, the daughter of college professors. Her family moved to Mississippi, back to Alabama, and then to New Orleans when Margaret was ten. Walker's maternal grandmother, Elvira Ware Dozier, lived with the family, and the stories she told Margaret of life during slavery in Georgia inspired Walker's novel, Jubilee (1966), which imagines the Civil War and emancipation from the point of view of slaves on the cusp of freedom. When Walker was sixteen, Langston Hughes, who was reading at New Orleans University, read some of her poetry and encouraged her to go north for her education. Walker graduated from Northwestern University in 1935, and worked in the New Deal Federal Writers' Project from 1936 to 1939. In 1940, Walker received an M.A. in creative writing from the University of Iowa. Her thesis became her first published collection of poetry, For My People (1942). Walker taught from 1949 through 1979 at Jackson State University in Jackson, Mississippi, where she retains emeritus status. While teaching, she completed her Ph.D work for Iowa, and in 1966, she received her Ph.D. Jubilee

Table of Contents Margaret Urban Walker Title : Lincoln Professor of Ethics, Justice, and the Public Sphere Rank : Professor Education : Ph.D. Northwestern University, 1975. Areas: Ethical Theory and the History of Ethics; Theories of Justice; Feminist Theory. Email: Margaret.Walker@asu.edu Homepage: www.public.asu.edu/~muwalker I joined the faculty of the School of Justice Studies in August 2002 as Lincoln Professor of Ethics, Justice, and the Public Sphere. I am a philosopher whose specialty is the history and theory of ethics. My published work examines conceptions of moral agency, knowledge, and responsibility, with a focus on uncovering the impact of social differences and hierarchies, especially those of gender and race, on those conceptions. In Moral Understandings: A Feminist Study in Ethics (Routledge, 1998) and in Moral Contexts (Rowman and Littlefield, 2002) I develop a conception of ethical thinking that is reflective and critical about the social power and privilege that can shape our understanding of human beings and how they should live, often to the disadvantage of those already unjustly disadvantaged. My current work explores “moral repair,” the meaning and power of responses to wrongdoing that create or restore trust and hope. I try to understand practices of responding to wrongdoing in both personal and political contexts. My teaching includes Theories of Justice and Introduction to Justice Studies on the undergraduate level, and courses on conceptions of justice and restorative justice on the graduate level.

Margaret Walker A writer and friend of Richard Wright, Margaret Walker has written a "psychobiography" on Wright entitled Daemonic Genius (New York: Amistad, 1988). She worked with Wright at the Chicago Writers' Project of the WPA in the late thirties. Brief Excerpt: "For Wright, a woman was an enemy, who failed to give him love and happiness by frustrating him in his search for meaning and success. These women were all close to him in his family, friendships, and marriages. First, there were his mother, aunts, and grandmother, with whom he had great conflict. He had no sisters, but in his random and brief friendships with women he abandoned each one becasue he felt she had failed, betrayed, or abandoned him. In both marriages, he was unable to ameliorate the conflicts, although his marriage to Ellen lasted nearly twenty years. With his first daughter, Julia, he found love and affection and close rapport, but with his second, Rachel, who was so unlike him, he again found frustration. Medusa is a woman, and throughout Wright's life she reappears." Chapter 17: "Medusa Is a Woman," pp. 107-8.

Biography Margaret Abigail Walker was born on 7 July 1915 in Birmingham, Alabama. Her parents, the Reverend Sigismund C. Walker, a Methodist minister and an educator, and Marion Dozier Walker, a music teacher, encouraged her to read poetry and philosophy from an early age. Walker completed her high school education at Gilbert Academy in New Orleans, Louisiana, where her family had moved in 1925. She went on to attend New Orleans University (now Dillard University) for two years. Then, after acclaimed poet Langston Hughes recognized her talent and urged her to seek training in the North, she transferred to Northwestern University in Chicago, Illinois, where she received a B.A. in English in 1935, at the age of nineteen. In 1937, she published "For My People" in Poetry magazine. Her first poem to appear in print, it became one of her most famous and was even anthologized in 1941 in The Negro Caravan before becoming the opening poem of her first volume of verse in 1942. In 1936, she took on full-time work with the Federal Writers' Project in Chicago under Franklin D. Roosevelt's Works Project Administration, befriending and collaborating with such noted artists as Gwendolyn Brooks, Katherine Dunham, and Frank Yerby. Perhaps the most memorable of these friendships with fellow artists was that with noted author Richard Wright, whose texts Walker would later help research and revise. In 1988, Walker would also write a book recalling that friendship, entitled Richard Wright, Daemonic Genius: A Portrait of the Man, a Critical Look at His Work
