Antwone's most well known work was the feature classic movie, "Antwone Fisher" directed by and starring Oscar®-winning actor, Denzel Washington based on the New York Times best selling inspirational memoir, Finding Fish. In addition to this, Antwone has written a compelling collection of poetry entitled, Who Will Cry For The Little Boy? as well as his current book, A Boy Should Know How To Tie A Tie And Other Lessons For Succeeding In Life.
In addition to securing the next production of Finding Fish: a play, Antwone's current screenwriting project is Training Day 2. He has recently made his film directing debut with his short film, "My Summer Friend" which is presently on the film festival circuit.
Antwone has been listed in Variety's "Fifty People in Hollywood To Watch" and Fade In Magazine's "Top 100 People in Hollywood You Need to Know".
As a former foster child himself, Antwone is the ideal role model and advocate for abused foster children everywhere. We are proud to have him as our guest!
We look forward to seeing you as we celebrate Youth Homes accomplishments and the power of community!
