We are thrilled to share the incredible story of Bessie Stringfield, the groundbreaking "Motorcycle Queen of Miami," whose remarkable life is now captured in the award-winning documentary “To Myself With Love: The Bessie Stringfield Story,” directed and produced by Diane Fredel-Weis. This inspiring film chronicles how Bessie became the first Black woman to ride a motorcycle cross-country, breaking barriers and defying expectations in the 1930s and 40s. With festival wins and potential Oscar buzz, this documentary is a must-watch celebration of a true American trailblazer who rode her way into history. Thank you, Raisa Habersham, and the Miami Herald, for a great write-up!
