Tamara N. Houston is the founder of heritage development enterprise ICON MANN, a published author, and an entertainment producer. She and her organization are committed to direct engagement and working across channels from boardrooms to studio campaigns to original productions to positively rewrite and reposition the narrative of black men.

But Tamara's love for the Black community and Black men is only part of what we explored during our conversation. We touch on everything from classic film, fashion, and the entertainment agency world to some of her early conversations with Hollywood stars like Idris Elba and Charles King.

But ultimately, this episode is a love letter to Tamara and all the women who fight with and for us. We honor you all today and every day. 

WE GIVE THESE FLOWERS IN COLLABORATION WITH

McKinsey and Company and the McKinsey Institute for Black Economic Mobility. Their goal is to inspire, empower, and sustain action that leads to the economic development of Black communities across the globe.
