Further Faster with Joseph McClendon III S1 E38 Cure For The Common Life - Living & Giving With the First African-American Photojournalist Assigned to The White House, Reggie Selma
“The secret to living is giving.”
Today I am joined by the legendary, former photojournalist, and very first African American cameraman assigned to The White House, Mr. Reggie Selma.
But his influential accomplishments don’t just stop there!! Because off-camera, Reggie has gone on to become one of the most inspiring and mesmerizing speakers in the industry, as well as what I like to lovingly refer to as an “ambassador of dopamine.”
From Ronald Reagan to Barack Obama, my friend Reggie has traveled the globe to document the doings of some incredibly important people, and I’m honored today at the opportunity to hear and share some of his greatest stories of all time.
Because above ALL else - Reggie Selma is a storyteller, and I can’t wait for you to hear the words that come out of his Magnificent mouth yourself!
