This is an archival piece from the Premier Guide Miami collection. The coverage, context, and details reflect the time it was originally published.
CNN anchor and award-winning journalist Soledad O'Brien — whose documentary series "Black in America" and "Latino in America" earned Emmy, Peabody, DuPont, and NAACP President's Awards — visited Miami's Books & Books in Coral Gables to discuss and sign her newest memoir, The Next Big Story: My Journey Through the Land of Possibilities. Premier Guide Miami sat down to find out what that means — and what comes next.
CNN's award-winning journalist Soledad O'Brien — whose poignant documentary series "Black in America" and "Latino in America" earned her Emmy, Peabody, DuPont, Gracie Allen, Clara Barton Hispanic Heritage, and NAACP President's Awards — visited Miami to promote her newest memoir, The Next Big Story: My Journey Through the Land of Possibilities (Celebra, $24.95), at Books & Books in Coral Gables.
Love Miami covers the city's conversations — the interviews, the creative voices, the tastemakers and innovators who define South Florida's cultural identity. This is the pillar where Miami speaks for itself.
The memoir recounts O'Brien growing up with racial prejudice and falling in love with the television business. Premier Guide Miami's Daedrian McNaughton had the chance to understand what really goes into making The Next Big Story during O'Brien's appearance and book signing at Books & Books, Coral Gables, on Sunday, November 7, 2010.
