She is currently president and publisher of Dreamscribe Publications, LLC, which publishes various literary works including novels, poetry, and inspirational non-fiction. Born in 1980, she is originally from Jackson, Mississippi. A. L.

Lewis, and notable poets such as Maya Angelou and various other notable writers and poets from the Harlem Renaissance such as Countee Cullen, Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, Anne Spencer, and Gwendolyn Bennett. She is a staunch supporter of the cultural arts and as such, strongly believes in the education of the arts and is very passionate about various sociocultural issues that we as people face. She is also particularly passionate about issues that affect women such as those pertaining to women's rights and violence against women. As a writer, A. L. Hearn creatively merges relevant modern day issues that we all face in society, our personal lives, and in our faith with imaginative story telling to create and publish timeless literary works that move us, inspire us, and motivate us to think with open minds and fresh perspectives.
