Shange was born in New Jersey in 1948 and named Paulette Williams. Her father, Paul T. Williams, was a surgeon, and her mother, Eloise, was an educator and psychiatric social worker. […] In 1971, she changed her name from Paulette Williams to Ntozake Shange, which is Zulu for “she who comes with her own things and walks like a lion” […] / quoted from The New Yorker
