Honoring Voza Rivers for a Lifetime of Excellence at Nat'l Black Writers Conference Nov. 11-14, 2020

By Gloria DULAN-Wilson

Hello All:

 

This is absolutely wonderful; and I have to give my brother/friend, Voza Rivers, high praise on his accomplishments.  The wonderful thing about Voza is that he keeps growing, expanding, doing more, exposing us to more and more, while simultaneously learning, growing, and accomplishing even more applying his love for Black writers and international and multicultural interaction.  

Any and all accolades accorded Voza is well deserved.  He's set records in his productions, community activism, and writing, and interaction with Japanese, Cuban, and other cultures.  I, myself, have personally been the beneficiary of Voza's mentorship as a member of the Harlem Black Screen Writer's guild.  And I will always be grateful for his confidence in my writing skills when I was flying low under the radar.  I actually found my writer's voice and was privileged to work with some of the greatest Black writers, producers, and artists of all times.  It was like living a dream - sharing my work with fellow writers; going through the metamorphosis that pulled out depths I didn't know I had.

Voza Rivers is one of the most prolific, creative, well liked, hard working Fine Black Man on the Planet.  Congratulations to him for this latest recognition.
