…..my friend and mentor Herb Boyd, who was honored Feb. 19 by Anheuser Busch at Hue Man Bookstore in Harlem.

Herb’s an author, journalist and historian. The managing editor of The Black World Today and a longtime freelancer for The New York Amsterdam News, he’s the author of about a gazillion books. 🙂 He also is a very humble and helpful person who happens to be a famous writer. Cue oxymoron. 🙂
