Our host:
Erika E. Wade
Erika E. Wade is a 31 year old writer, producer, and performer from Birmingham, Alabama. She began her writing career publishing short stories for children when she was only in the 8th grade. Erika has been creating content and challenging diversity standards in the entertainment industry for over 20 years. Although young in age, Erika has been writing for more than half of her lifetime. She is no overnight success.
Now, Erika focuses her time on writing for the screen, both big and small. She’s the founder of Glenda’s Baby Productions company and creator of The Juke Joint Live, a multimedia live show created during the Coronavirus global pandemic that explores the intersectionality of her life as a southern Black woman creative during the Black Lives Matter movement.
Erika’s work leaps off the page. Her characters are relatable and honest. Her authentic regional dialogue has become a key characteristic of her style. Her ability to capture characters from underrepresented communities enriches her work and allows her to reach toward a much larger audience. Erika doesn’t just write dynamic characters; she creates unique and quirky worlds for them and her audiences to get lost in.
