Happy 123rd Birthday to Icon Zora Neal Hurston – via Google
Google paid tribute to cultural icon and prolific writer Zora Neal Hurston today on what would have been her 123rd Birthday.

Google’s creative homepage doodles are equally iconic, highlighting only the most thoughtworthy moments and people in history. Hurston’s depiction is well deserving. Good job Google!
