"A STORYTELLER LIKE NO OTHER"

Andreea Kindred, at 80, is a storyteller like no other.
Her slave ancestors taught a lesson of love, rather than hate and equipped her to be one of the first two black staff hired by a major television studio, though she jokes that it took a riot to get her the job.

"Andee...who I believe was the first black Executive Secretary on the lot and whose miniskirts revealed long shapely legs even Tina Turner would envy.
She shared Gene Coons' wild comments sardonic sense of humor period, long before Black comedians made it..."

CODE SWITCHING
MY FAMILY'S JOURNEY FROM SLAVERY TO THE STARS
This is not just another Star Trek book!
​
It’s comedy and history, drama and politics, sex and drugs.
​
CodeSwitching will transport you from Shankleville Freedom Colony in 1800s Texas to California, from a burning building in Watts to the set of Star Trek, and via South East Asia’s Hippie Trail to Sydney, Australia.
​
Andreea Kindryd will take you on a raw, sometimes brutally honest journey with experiences that echo voices from indigenous, people of color, and those of differing sexuality and abilities. Along the journey she was lucky to enjoy the company, and insights of some very interesting, often famous people.
