Nobel laureate Toni Morrison is now forever immortalised on a stamp honouring the prolific writer, editor, scholar and mentor that was unveiled earlier this week in a tribute at Princeton University, where she taught for almost two decades.

Guest speakers, some who had close personal relationships with Morrison, included former President Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey and the Librarian of Congress, Carla Hayden.
