About Arlene Corsano Books
Had it not been for a 2001 chance meeting between Rose Marie McCoy and Arlene Corsano, the details of this amazing songwriter might have been lost forever. Corsano had been writing articles for newspapers and magazines when she met the fascinating, but nearly forgotten, Rose Marie McCoy. With the intention of correcting an important piece of music history Corsano then introduced McCoy's legacy to several institutions which have since honored this legendary songwriter, including the Smithsonian Institute and the Arkansas Black Hall of Fame. The writer feels blessed to have been friends with the talented, determined, warm and witty Rose Marie McCoy.
