In a new memoir, Sugar Hill: Where the Sun Rose Over Harlem (Impulse Press, 2012), Terry Baker Mulligan '66 writes joyously about weathering adolescence while history unfolds around her in mid-century Harlem. Evangelists, curly-haired doo-wop boys, and interracial couples populate her memorable cast of characters, while she also chronicles Thursday matinées at the Apollo, Sunday mornings at Smalls Paradise and the Hot Cha, as well as encounters with Willie Mays in the shoeshine parlor and with Minniejean Brown, one of the Little Rock Nine, in the Dreamland luncheonette.
