Tananarive Due has written more than seven books ranging from supernatural thrillers to science fiction to a civil rights memoir to erotica, making the American Book Award-winning author among the nation’s most versatile voices.
The Living Blood (2001), which received a 2002 American Book Award, “should set the standard for supernatural thrillers of the new millennium, ”said Publishers Weekly, which named both The Living Blood and My Soul to Keep (1997) among the best novels of the year. The Good House (2003) was nominated as Best Novel by the International Horror Guild. The Black Rose (2000), based on the life of pioneer Madam C.J. Walker, was nominated for an NAACP Image Award. My Soul to Keep will soon be a major motion picture at Fox Searchlight Pictures.
Due and her husband, novelist and screenwriter Steven Barnes, along with actor Blair Underwood have just released Casanegra, an erotic mystery (July 2007) that is receiving acclaim for it’s entertaining storyline and titillating scenes.
