Fannie_Flagg

Fannie Flagg Fannie Flagg When faced with the prospect of writing a research paper on an important female artist, I mentally seesawed from name to another. I narrowed it down to an author immediately but then I was stumped. This one I didn’t like, that one I liked but couldn’t find enough material on, and finally, the one I neither liked nor understood! So, like the good student I am, I promptly moved on to an easier assignment – a movie assignment. It was when I got a hankering to watch Fried Green Tomatoes that inspiration struck. I was reminded that Fannie Flagg wrote the book of the same name. I had recently read and enjoyed Welcome to the World, Baby Girl! and I knew this was someone that I wanted to learn more about. Fannie Flagg is an author that I both enjoy and admire. She has succeeded as an actress, a comedienne, a screenwriter, and an author. The tenacity and vitality she has shown in her careers and her personal life sends us the message that women are strong and capable people. She also uses her humor and storytelling ability to create characters flagg, fannie, one, tomatoes, green, fried, writing, says, evelyn, new, girl, balls, york, stop, show, same, name, just, written, books, april, 2001, 15, world, women, own, out, life, idgie, flagg’s, cookbook, café, being, about
