Authors of "One Step Away: My Story of The Andantes, Motown, and the Women Behind the Sound of Young America"
In "One Step Away", Motown legend Louvain Demps, joined by Emmy Award–winning journalist Paul Milliken, flips the record to at last tell the story of The Andantes—the powerhouse trio of Black women who secretly shaped the soundtrack of a generation—shining a warm spotlight on their talent and contributions.
Now, in a story as electrifying as the music itself, Louvain recreates Motown’s golden years and her experiences in helping to build the brand, taking us from the vibrant Detroit street corners where she first sang to Studio A. One Step Away is both an intimate personal portrait of a legendary time and a journey of resilience, reinvention, and survival.
