Poet and activist Maya Angelou is one of the most celebrated names in American history. With more than sixty years of influence, Angelou’s words of wisdom have stirred millions. Her work has influenced world leaders, including members of the United Nations and former U.S. President, Bill Clinton, who asked Angelou to write and deliver a poem during his 1993 presidential inauguration. She recently sat down with the Arizona Informant to speak about life, love, receiving the Medal of Freedom from President Obama, and how her greatest achievements were not just for fellow African-Americans, but for everyone.
