Nic Stone is a native of Atlanta and a Spelman College graduate. After working extensively in teen mentoring and living in Israel for a few years, she returned to the United States to write full-time. Dear Martin, her first novel, is loosely based on a series of true events involving the shooting deaths of unarmed African American teenagers. Shaken by the various responses to these incidentsâand to the pro-justice movement that sprang up as a resultâStone began the project in an attempt to examine current affairs through the lens of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.âs teachings.
