About this Event

Book Launch: Amy DuBois Barnett presents If I Ruled the World
Wine reception to follow

Amy DuBois Barnett, former editor in chief of Honey magazine, Ebony, and Teen People, and deputy editor in chief of Harper's Bazaar, launches her debut novel If I Ruled the World at Greenlight! Fast-paced and juicy, If I Ruled the World peeks behind the curtain at the cutthroat world of hip hop music and the glamorous magazine scene in the late 1990s. A smart and utterly immersive journey through one of the most dynamic eras in pop culture history—If I Ruled the World is a story of ambition, friendship, love, and finding your own voice. DuBois Barnett reads from and discusses the book in-depth, before an audience Q&A and signing.
