I usually just choose a few front pages for these features, but today on the fronts of newspapers around the country, and a few around the world, there are images of Maya Angelou. In some, she’s younger, in some, she’s older. She’s smiling or speaking or laughing or just looking at the camera. There were many more than this collection I gathered from Newseum, but here’s a handful of the day’s tributes to Maya Angelou.
