Uncover the fascinating accomplishments of an extraordinary black woman who helped shape American history with her iconic fashion designs. The Life Story of Ann Lowe: America's First Black Woman Haute Couture Designer and Fashion's Best Kept Secret gives a comprehensive overview of the life and achievements of a woman who endured racism, betrayal, financial hardship, and personal tragedy, all to become the first black woman to own a shop on the prestigious Madison Ave in New York.

This book offers a broad and chronological overview of Ms. Lowe's life achievements.

- How she became the go-to designer for America's socially prominent and wealthy families, including the du Ponts, the Roosevelts, the Rockefellers, the Vanderbilts, and the Kennedys. Yet her name is virtually unknown.
- How she came to know herself by discovering and pursuing her talents.
- How not receiving recognition for designing Jackie Kennedy's wedding dress sent her into depression.
- How the legacy of Ann Lowe has emerged from the shadows of the past to finally be recognized and take its rightful place in American history.
