Before landing a spot on the megahit Netflix show Orange is the New
Black; before wow-ing audiences as Lina on Jane the Virgin; and
before her incredible activism and work on immigration reform, Diane
Guerrero was a young girl living in Boston. One day, while Guerrero was
at school, her undocumented immigrant parents were taken from their
home, detained, and deported. Guerrero's life, which had been full of
the support of a loving family, was turned upside down.
Reflective of the experiences of millions of undocumented immigrant
families in the United States, Guerrero's story in My Family Divided,
written with Erica Moroz, is at once heartbreaking and hopeful.
