Is Dana Johnson a lesbian?
The Professor does not reveal anything about her sexuality, She is happily married to her husband, who is from Alabama. Dana is also a huge baseball fan, supporting the Dodgers in true LA spirit, a club she had gotten to know because her father had started taking her to games long before she even knew what she was looking at.
Johnson’s works are partly based on her own experiences with living in different parts of Los Angeles and its surrounding areas. With her works, she wants to show the varied sides of Los Angeles that are not usually given attention. Race, class consciousness, and gender are major themes in her works.
Although a lot of her work is about African-American people, she does not want to be put in a box: “I reject the idea that as a black woman, I’m relegated to writing black women exclusively. That is not what being a writer is for me. She simply wants to write about humans.
