Born
in St. Vincent, Carolle Bourne moved to
Trinidad as a young woman and enjoyed a career composing
advertising copy before going on to journalism in the United
States, where she divided her time between caring for her
two sons and writing fashion promotions for Lits of Philadelphia
and Gimbels of New York.

Barbados, concentrating on short fiction, poetry and art
reviews for the local press, including the Advocate and
the Nation newspapers. She won the Kamau Brathwaite Award
