New Book Empowers Black Entrepreneurs

"Changing the Narrative, No Matter What Your Birth Circumstance." Dana Frank

SEATTLE, PRNewswire -- Wiley proudly announces the release of Dana Frank's debut book, Get Up & Get On It: A Black Entrepreneur's Lessons on Creating Legacy & Wealth. This compelling guide, filled with true stories and practical tools, empowers Black entrepreneurs and individuals from marginalized communities to build lasting legacies and achieve financial success.

Dana Frank's story begins in 1950 with her father, Gerald Frank, a determined Black man who arrived in Seattle at 18. Escaping Detroit's violence and Jim Crow laws, Gerald brought his dreams and drumsticks, laying the foundation for a real estate empire that continues to thrive under the Frank family's third generation.

Get Up & Get On It vividly depicts the hurdles faced by the Frank family. Dana confronted racial barriers and unconventional business choices made by her father. After her parents' thirty-two-year marriage ended in divorce, Dana and her mother became fearless business partners, facing near-bankruptcy. Their story is one of fortitude, perseverance, and hard work. As a single mother and entrepreneur, Dana leveraged her network and envisioned a brighter future for her family and other marginalized people.
