McMillan, known for best-selling novels-turned-movies such as “Waiting to Exhale” and “How Stella Got Her Groove Back,” will be honored during the ceremony with the Lifetime Achievement Award. In 1974, McMillan won Essence’s first college essay contest.
The Essence Literary Awards also will kick off the magazine’s “Save Our Libraries” campaign to benefit the Countee Cullen Regional Library in Harlem, a branch of the New York City Public Library system. “[We] hope that through our ‘Save Our Libraries’ campaign, entities such as the historic Countee Cullen Branch will have the crucial resources needed to provide the services our communities so desperately need,” says Bass.
