Season 4: Episode 25 - Interview with author Dr. Otto E. Stallworth Jr.

Tonight, our guest is Dr. Otto E. Stallworth Jr., MD, MBA. Dr. Stallworth was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama during the 1940s and 50s. He crossed the Alabama state line for the first time at 16 to attend college. He was the first college graduate in his family and soon after obtained a medical degree at the age of 24 and later an MBA. Outside of medicine, he had several businesses, including Oh Yes! Management and Hollywood Fries Restaurant. As a personal manager, he discovered and secured a record deal for Taste of Honey, the first Black artist in the 22-year history of the Grammys to win the award for “Best New Artist,” for their mega-hit song “Boogie Oogie Oogie” in 1979. The Hollywood Fries Restaurant, in the Westwood/UCLA area, opened in 1999 with his partners Hollywood Casting Director Reuben Cannon, actor Danny Glover, and Pepsi executive Olden Lee. In his new memoir, “Are you a N**** or a Doctor?” Dr. Stallworth shares details of his life that are evocative of friendships, falling in love, and marriages; and a great variety of occupations ranging from discovering and managing a famous music group to driving a city bus on his first trip to Chicago to becoming a doctor. We enjoyed our conversation with Dr. Stallworth and were thoroughly impressed by his life’s journey. We also discuss the recent ruling by SCOTUS regarding affirmative action in College Admissions.
