Dr. Willie Jolley’s principle to win BIG today “The Warren Shadd Story”

I want to celebrate a Black History maker of today, one I’ve seen with my own eyes make history his name is Warren Shadd. He’s the founder, creator and owner of The Shadd Piano Company, the first African American grand Piano Company in history. And I’ve seen it with my own eyes how he has created this company from nothing. He came from great stock Aunt Shirley Horne was a great jazz pianist. His father was a well known musician, who was also one of the master piano tuners in the area. He taught his son everything he knew, and Warren took it and created an instrument that had been lauded by Richard Smallwood is one in the Vatican, the Pope has one. And it was the piano that was the piano of record for the TV show Empire. This is history in the making and I am excited about it but he started with nothing and he struggled until he made it happen.
