Martha Weston Grant
The Hairston Family wishes to honor and remember Martha (Hairston) Weston. After publishing more than 50 picture books and easy-readers as an illustrator and/or author, Martha published her first middle-grade novel shortly before her death. Martha always took time to encourage others, and it's the intention of the Martha Weston Grant to carry forward her generous spirit.
