Hannah Crafts was an African American slave in the United States during the 19th century. She is the author of The Bondwoman s Narrative , a hand written manuscript that was discovered in 2002 at the New York Swann Galeries auction house. The work was carefully verified as authentic by Henry Louis Gates Jr. , a scholar of 19th century African American literature and culture. The name Hannah Crafts is thought to be a pseudonym by most critics and the work may be a fictionalized autobiography. ref name gardner2009 The identity of the author remains a mystery. She appears to be a self taught writer and may have been born in the 1830s. The writing links her to the North Carolina slave owner John Wheeler, from whom she may have escaped in 1857. If so, then her real name may be Hannah Vincent, as this name appears in the census records of New Jersey in 1870 and 1880. ref name beaulieu Research suggests the book was written some time between 1855 and 1869.
