In 1997 he joined (and later became captain of) the country's first All-Black high school rowing team at Manley High School, an experience that changed his life. He then dedicated two years of his life to AmeriCorps, focusing on DEI, and soon after that attended Le Cordon Bleu, becoming a personal chef for World Wrestling Entertainment, Warner Brothers film sets, and professional athletes. After years as an entrepreneur in the food service industry, Arshay returned to his true passion: working with young people. He founded the NY East Side Rowing Club and worked as the national youth program guidance counselor for Victory Outreach International. Arshay also helped start several rowing programs for low-income youth across the country, anywhere a puddle of water exists, so that other young people can experience the profound change that can happen on the water. Arshay is the founder of the National Award-Winning Non-Profit, The A Most Beautiful Thing Inclusion Fund, which introduces thousands of under-resourced youth to the sport of rowing. Arshay's mission has sparked the MLK Day of Service “DAY ON'' for collegiate and high school sports teams across the country and community rowing events between local police and community members. Arshay's message has spread all across the world, speaking for the members of Congress, the NBA and WNBA, the NAACP, the Obama Foundation, the Congressional Black Caucus, and professional sports teams (including the Oakland A's, the Atlanta Hawks, the Miami Dolphins, the Atlanta Falcons, and the Chicago Bulls). The British, New Zealand, Australian, German, Dutch, Italian, French, Egyptian, Turkish, Canadian, and other Olympic teams are supporting Arshay and the film profoundly, including creating new charitable organizations and initiatives with underserved communities. Universities and athletic directors across the United States (from Morehouse and other HBCU institutions to the University of Washington to Harvard, Yale, and Princeton) are all hosting events with Arshay. Arshay has spoken at UPS, Bank of America, Target, JP Morgan, Delta Airlines, Starbucks, Microsoft, and many other companies hosting conversations around the film, digging into access and opportunity, and the importance of bringing people together. The book was nominated for an NAACP Image Award and won the 2020 Nautilus Award. The film has won the 2021 Gracie Award, was nominated by the NAACP for an Image Award, was nominated by the Critics' Choice Association for Best Sports Documentary, was nominated by the International Press Academy for Best Documentary, and was named one of the best films of 2020 by Esquire. The film is currently streaming on Peacock and Amazon Prime, and a scripted series is now being developed with Amazon Studios. Arshay and his work have been featured in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, LA Times, Today Show, NBC Nightly News, BBC, Men's Health, Sports Illustrated, Hollywood Reporter, Chicago Tribune, BET, NPR, and many others.

Bio taken from IMDB One of the most respected Latina actresses in Hollywood, April Hernandez-Castillo's personal life story is one of victory. Her feature film debut as Eva Benitez in the Image Award-nominated MTV film, Freedom Writers (2007), alongside Academy Award-winner Hilary Swank, put her in the ranks of some of the biggest names in the industry. An actress with a blend of unlimited expression and humor, the Bronx (NY) native made her stage debut at the famous New York Comedy Club in New York City as a stand-up comedienne. As an actress, April expanded her stage experience to television. She got her first acting break as the Yo/Yoa Girl alongside NBA All-Star Houston Rockets center Yao Ming in the 2004 Super Bowl Visa Check Card national commercial. Next came major television roles that would include NBC's Emmy-award winning series ER (1994), Law & Order (1990) and 30 Rock (2006). Keeping an eye on the big screen, in 2007 she tried out for the role of a lifetime and got it--in "Freedom Writers". She would co-star alongside one of Hollywood's biggest stars, Hilary Swank. It was in this role that April would catch the attention of The View (1997) producers, who invited her to co-host the show. Reaching critical heights, her portrayal of Eva Benitez earned her recognition and critical acclaim confirming her status as one of the more talented up-and-coming actresses. Displaying the talent and drive to parlay success into a career as a respected actress, April garnered roles in the pilot Blue Blood (2008) on Fox and Showtime's Nurse Jackie (2009), CBS' Person of Interest (2011) and received a SAG Award nomination for her role as Officer Cira Manson in Showtime's award-winning drama Dexter (2006), a role in John Mitchell's sci-fi comedy The History of Future Folk (2012), guest-starred as Danny Pino's sister on NBC's drama Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (1999) and appeared in two episodes of FOX's hit show The Following (2013). April has demonstrated her versatility as an actress. However, her latest role is not in front of the camera but as a motivational and inspirational speaker.

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with George Schlatter, Legendary Television Producer, Director And Writer About Harvey's guest: Today's special guest, George Schlatter, is a legendary television producer, director and writer whose body of work is nothing short of jaw-dropping.    For over 5 decades, he's brought us some of the greatest television variety series and specials ever made.  He produced the Judy Garland Show, the Dinah Shore Chevy Show, the Cher show, and of course, his groundbreaking TV series, “Laugh-In”, which won him 3 Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe nomination.  AND he gave us television's first reality show, “Real People”.   He produced the first 5 years of the Grammy Awards, and dozens of TV specials with the greatest stars, including Doris Day, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Lucille Ball, Elton John, Bette Midler, Liza Minnelli, Michael Jackson, Shirley MacLaine, Diana Ross, and scores of others.   He won his 3rd Emmy award for producing Sammy Davis Jr's 60th Anniversary Celebration.  In 1987 he created – and for 15 years he produced – the American Comedy Awards.   He's received every honour imaginable, including 25 Emmy Award nominations, 3 Emmys, 3 Image Awards, the Television Critics Award, the Directors Guild Award, the Producers Guild “Man of The Year,” an honourary doctorate from Pepperdine University - and believe me, I'm just scratching the surface. On its 25th Anniversary, the Television Academy honored him for his outstanding contribution to television.  And in 1989, he was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.   And later this year he'll be releasing his highly anticipated book entitled, “Still Laughing: A Life in Comedy From the Creator of Laugh-in”.  And a documentary feature film about his life and career is being produced as we speak. For more interviews and podcasts go to: https://www.harveybrownstoneinterviews.com/ https://www.georgeschlatter.com/ http://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.georgeschlatter.com%2Fhttp://twitter.com/intent/tweet/?text=Welcome+to+the+George+Schlatter+Official+Website&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.georgeschlatter.com%2F #GeorgeSchlatter  #harveybrownstoneinterviews

After 27 years as the chief editor of Essence magazine and the visionary credited with building the brand, Susan Taylor left publishing to devote her life to building an organization that is devoted to breaking the cycle of intergenerational poverty among African Americans. A community-mobilization movement, National CARES Mentoring Movement is the only organization dedicated to providing mentoring, healing and wellness services on a national scale for Black children. Susan is the best-selling author of four books, and editor of eight others, a fourth-generation entrepreneur, who grew up in Harlem working in her father’s clothing store. At 24, she founded her own cosmetics company, which led to the beauty editor’s position at Essence, the publication she would go on to shape as chief editor into a world-renown brand with more than 8 million readers. Ms. Taylor authored the magazine's most popular column, In the Spirit—the first in a mainstream U.S. magazine to champion spiritual growth as a pathway to total well-being and a meaningful life. Ms. Taylor is a recipient of more than a dozen honorary doctorates and hundreds of awards, including presidential citations, Image Awards and the NAACP President's Award for Visionary Leadership. She is the only African American woman to be recognized by the Magazine Publishers of America’s Henry Johnson Fisher Award—the industry's highest honor—and the first to be inducted into the American Society of Magazine Editors Hall of Fame. In this episode, Susan and host, Brad Johnson, having known each other since Brad was 15 years old, share an intimate conversation about life philosophy, the benefits of self-care and taking time to be still, the confluence of experiences and self-confidence that led to becoming Editor-In- Chief of Essence, the importance of unity and community organization, the value of elder’s wisdom, the unprecedented rise in black child suicide, and her highest calling to provide wellness, mentoring and opportunity to today’s vulnerable youth through her organization.

Legendary actor, Danny Glover, has built a reputation for powerful onscreen performances such as in The Color Purple and Lethal Weapon series. He has been nominated multiple times for Best Picture, personal Emmys, won the Independent Spirit Award for Best Actor in a film, To Sleep with Anger, honored with the NAACP President's Award, multiple Image Awards and Ace Award for his work in the HBO movie, Mandela. In addition to his acting career, Mr. Glover has been a tireless warrior fighting for social and economic justice. For his advocacy related to access to health care and education programs in the USA and Africa, he has received multiple honors including a DGA Honor, and a Doctorate of Humane Letters for his humanitarian efforts with organizations such as the United Farm Workers, UNITE HERE, The Algebra Project, and Black AIDS Institute. Earlier this year, Mr. Glover traveled to Birmingham, Alabama to help mobilize support for Amazon warehouse's 5,800 predominately Black workers in their efforts to form a union. In June, 2019, Mr. Glover testified before a subcommittee of the House Judiciary at the Capitol in Washington, along with Ta-Nehisi Coates and Sen. Cory Booker on the HR 40 bill (read transcript here), which ultimately passed, to form a commission to study the effects of slavery and search for possible avenues for reparations. In this episode, Mr. Glover and host Brad Johnson discuss the roots of his activism, his parents' journey from the Deep South to San Francisco during the Great Migration, words of wisdom he shares with students including the parallels today with the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s, and his views on gentrification, reparations, finding justice and impassioning the next generation to recognize their role in creating history. * * * Instagram Corner Table Talk and Post and Beam Hospitality LinkedIn Brad Johnson Medium Corner Table Media E.Mail brad@postandbeamhospitality.com For more information on host Brad Johnson or to join our mailing list, please visit: https://postandbeamhospitality.com/ Corner Table™ is a trademark of Post & Beam Hospitality LLC © Post & Beam Hospitality LLCSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
