Hudson-Pierce The Author
Her interest in creative writing paid off; over the years, Hudson-Pierce has written five books, three being free verse poetry:
Friendship Is A Journey (1987)
The Warming of Winter (1989)
To Soar Again! (1994)
Two others are inspirational pieces:
Southern Vignettes (1995)
Turning Points (1996), semi-autobiographical
Columnist Erma Bombeck dedicated her February 26, 1986, column to her friend Hudson-Pierce.
One of Hudson-Pierce's articles, "The Old Steamer Trunk", was published in Guideposts magazine in January 1998. Richard "Dick" Schneider, a senior staff editor at Guideposts, said that Hudson-Pierce's selection was particularly poignant and fitting for the publication. Stories about the article were written in numerous newspapers across the nation.
From 1995-2008, Hudson-Pierce hosted her own television program in Shreveport through Time Warner. She interviewed artists, authors, political figures, or anyone else of interest. She writes an occasional column for the Shreveport Times, one of which is on the difficulties of moving. Another is her autobiographical recollection of Christmas 1957. She has also written for the Bossier Tribune newspaper in Bossier City.
In 2002, Tanya Brasher Alexander, who resides near Shreveport, wrote a biographical poem of Hudson-Pierce's life.

Famous quotes containing the word author:
“...there was the annual Fourth of July picketing at Independence Hall in Philadelphia. ...I thought it was ridiculous to have to go there in a skirt. But I did it anyway because it was something that might possibly have an effect. I remember walking around in my little white blouse and skirt and tourists standing there eating their ice cream cones and watching us like the zoo had opened.”
—Martha Shelley, U.S. author and social activist. As quoted in Making History, part 3, by Eric Marcus (1992)
