Eve Sharon "Evia" Moore is an interracially-married essayist, interracial and intercultural relationship adviser, writer, podcaster, and producer of a growing series of books, newsletters, and podcasts on the subject of interracial and intercultural marriage. In 2007, the Associated Press interviewed her extensively for an AP article on interracial marriage and Evia's website, blackfemaleinterracialmarriage.com, was spotlighted in the article that focused on the surge in black women entering interracial relationships and marriages. Evia's popular niche website encourages women to embrace the abundance in all realms of life, which includes making the commonsense decision to take advantage of all of their dating and mating options by inviting quality, interested men of all races and cultures into their potential relationship pool. Evia is the proud mother of two sons, and holds undergraduate and graduate degrees in comparative cultures (ethnology) and counseling. Aside from writing and consulting, she devotes herself to appreciating the arts, along with creating and selling her fiber art and jewelry designs. Evia travels widely and has lived abroad. Black Women: Interracial and Intercultural Marriage BOOK 1-First and Foremost is the first book in the series that explores and documents black women's views on self-care and the intersection of race, culture, relationships, love, and marriage between African-American women and men from the global village, around the turn of the millennium.
