Brooklyn on My Mind is a powerful visual and narrative tribute to one of the most culturally significant boroughs in the world. Authored by artist, scholar, and cultural historian Dr. Myrah Brown Green, this book weaves together memory, place, and identity through an extraordinary collection of quilted artworks, photographs, and reflective essays.
Rooted in lived experience and historical awareness, the volume captures Brooklyn as both geography and state of mind—examining migration, community, resilience, and creative legacy. Dr. Brown Green’s textile works function as visual storytelling, each piece layered with meaning tied to Black history, womanhood, and the evolution of urban life.
Published by Schiffer, Brooklyn on My Mind sits at the intersection of art book, cultural archive, and personal memoir. It is both a collector’s volume and an educational resource—equally suited for the coffee table, classroom, library, or gallery shop.
