Month: February 2019

How do you “walk in somebody else’s shoes and not let your foot stretch the leather”? 

If you’re award winning audiobook narrator Robin Miles, you do it with humility – and with a love born of a life-long fascination with the music of language and with reading.

So I urge you to use the link below to listen to AudioFile Magazine’s interview with Robin. And I feel blessed that I had the opportunity to work with her.  Click here to sample Robin’s rendering of my audiobook, Word Warrior: Richard Durham, Radio, and Freedom.

Are you ready to be inspired!

Then please join me on Saturday, February 23, 2019, for a stimulating afternoon of discussion and good vibes at the stunning and newly renovated Cleveland Park Library in Washington, DC.

We’ll explore my book,

Word Warrior: Richard Durham, Radio, and Freedom,

a biography of a pioneering African American writer (for radio, television and print), who dramatically documented pivotal moments during the 20^th Century.

Chicagoan Richard Durham also collaborated with notable personalities as varied as writers Langston Hughes, Louis “Studs” Terkel and Toni Morrison, boxing great Muhammad Ali and Mayor Harold Washington.   To hear an excerpt from the book, click here. 

So prepare to be amazed and inspired by Durham’s fascinating creative journey, at 2:00pm at the Cleveland Park Library, 3310 Connecticut Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20008.

Hope to see you there!
