Gallery Exhibit & Book Signing with Andra Douglas
November 8th, 2019 – ArtsXchange in St. Petersburg, Florida
“Andra’s artwork is defined by the courageous spirit of the 100+ women’s tackle football teams throughout the world and inspired by the diversity of the players. She offers this work as a tribute to the female football players of all leagues and ages fueled by the force of their convictions. Her book is like poetry and offers insights into how we raise girls in our society. Highly-relatable, this is the story of every woman who
has had a dream but been told no.”

Author Profile - Andra Douglas
Your favorite literary character:
John Sutter in The Gold Coast because he is a witty, smart, successful man who is forced to see other sides of people including those he loves most. Also, he has to look at himself and reassess how he has lived.
Currently working on:
Changing Cadence which is the sequel to Black & Blue. It focuses on the latter part of my 20 years owning the New York Sharks—the aging athlete, the loss of loved ones, societal changes, and the ongoing fight for equality taking place in women’s sports, especially in football. The book will tell the story of how, after the upcoming sale of the team is announced, the Sharks embark on the last year of the team’s existence — which turns into a magical journey of victory and self-growth.
Words to live by:
To quote Shakespeare, “This above all, to thine own self be true.”
