Gwendolyn Osborne, journalist, romance writer, dies at 72

An avid reader and “hopeless romantic,” Gwendolyn Osborne, a founding member of the Chicago chapter of the National Association of Black Journalists, died May 14. (Provided)

Carolyn Hector Hall first met Gwendolyn Osborne in 1999 at a Black romance writer’s getaway, the Romance Slam Jam Conference in Orlando.

Or, should we say, Ms. Osborne really wanted to meet her. They were already acquainted through one of Hall’s online writing groups, Color of Love.
