Podcast appearances and mentions of Maria Howell

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I am honored to speak with my friend, Maria Howell.  Maria and I met years ago and played in the Livin' Large band.  She is one of my favorite singers and people on the planet.Maria was born in Gastonia, North Carolina, and graduated from Winston-Salem State University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. She worked as a jazz singer and made her film debut in The Color Purple (1985). Later, she began appearing in film and television. She lived in Okinawa, Japan, from 1995–2001.In the 2000s, Howell returned to the United States and made guest appearances on television series such as Drop Dead Diva, Army Wives, The Game, Necessary Roughness, and The Vampire Diaries, and well co-starred in films including Daddy's Little Girls (2007), Mississippi Damned (2009), The Blind Side (2009), and What to Expect When You're Expecting (2012). In 2013, Howell played Seeder in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. Also in 2012, she was cast in a recurring role in NBC's post-apocalyptic series Revolution as Grace Beaumont.

In this episode of the Davidson Day Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Maria Howell, singer, actress, and the latest addition to the Music program, here at Davidson Day. Maria teaches our schools first ever Middle School Chorus and co-leads our Upper School Contemporary Ensemble with Noel Friedline. Maria walks us through her journey from singing at her childhood church in Gastonia North Carolina, to appearing in films and traveling abroad to perform musically.

It is a pleasure for me to bring our friend Maria Howell back to the Tell Me A Bedtime Story Podcast Series. Maria is back by popular demand. I hope you heard her first reading of The Giving Tree. Her rendition was phenomenal. Maria's second reading is titled I Am Every Good Thing written by Derrick Barnes and beautifully illustrated by Gordon C. James. This book is another must have for your bookshelf. In this story, Maria will share what it takes to become every good thing that makes the world go round!

A. A. Milne said, If ever there is a tomorrow we are not together, there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believer, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart, I'll always be with you. I think this is a perfect quote for this bedtime story selection, The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein. I am excited that this episode is being read by one of The Foundation's friends, actress, jazz vocalist and composer Maria Howell. I promise you will love her rendition of this classic story. Also, I want to introduce our first contest of the season. Please visit our Facebook page, James M Dixon Foundation, for more information. The contest is easy and the prizes are great. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to email me at mindfulcaring@aol.com.

Maria Howell (@mariasingsacts) rocks our world this week. She started her career as the soloist in Spielberg’s “The Color Purple,” and since then she’s been gracing our screens up to and including recent Best Picture nominee “Hidden Figures.” Did we mention that she is also an amazing singer who, with the very power of her voice, can burn the hair right off your head…cause she can. We talk the awesomeness of “Wonder Woman,” the weirdness of “Cars,” and the awfulness of “Sony.” RIP Adam West - the Bright Knight.

Mere words can only capture the refrain of her awesome talent. Maria Howell is much more. She is the ballad of beauty and elegance. The melodies flowing from the petite vocalist are truly amazing. While casting a spellbinding smile, she mesmerizes her captive audience with incredible harmonies and rhythms. Howell's signature film performance as the choir soloist in the movie The Color Purple was quoted by one critic as being "one of the film's most stirring moments!" Her rendition of "God Is Trying to Tell You Something" was memorable for all who saw it, but the offerings of the all-grown-up Maria are truly unforgettable, eliciting more stirring moments, one after another. Some may be inspired to call her best kept secret, but anyone who leaves an imprint on every medium from radio, stage and television to the Hollywood screen is hardly incognito. Howell's talent has been featured as a nightclub singer "Goldie" and "Seeder" in the Hunger Games, "Catching Fire. I did not know any of this and just heard her amazing voice in a small part in Charlotte, NC.  Take a listen today as we discuss being "professional."

Actress, Singer and Voiceover artist, Maria Howell is best known as the choir soloist from the movie “The Color Purple. ”“Art and spirituality are like singing and acting for me. Art is an expression of the spiritual side of me so as I grow with one, it helps the other. It’s a volleying back and forth like my singing and acting have been. I want both. As I learn more and I grow, I want to know more. As a sensitive artist, you want to know about life—you want to know what it means.” ~Maria Howell
