She Is Legend: Salli Richardson-Whitfield
Whether you know her from starring alongside Will Smith in I Am Legend or her more recent credits on Blackish and Dear White People - you MUST meet Salli now.
Hey Team! I hope everyone has been having a great week!
I just dropped the newest episode of Season 2 featuring director, actress, and a good friend of mine, Salli Richardson-Whitfield!
Salli starred alongside Will Smith in the epic film, I Am Legend and has since become a major force in the industry as one of the directors of Blackish, Dear White People, Scandal, and co-produced the upcoming HBO series, Showtime: Magic, Kareem, Riley, and the Los Angeles Lakers Dynasty of the 1980s which is going to be amazing!
I got to speak with Salli about how she broke into Hollywood, being a mother in the entertainment industry, and how her faith impacts her career and influences her work. Check out a clip from our interview on Youtube Below!
I would love it if you'd listen to our full conversations, hit-up, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or Youtube.

As always, when you listen, please give @thedealewithNB a tag so I know you’re part of The Deal crew and can share with the world how amazing you are.
If you haven’t heard, I’m going on TOUR across the US and in the UK in the coming weeks, check out the schedule and get tickets here.

Love you all,
