If you are interested, please fax your resume to 1-877-721-9191. MEET THE JUDGE The real-life story of Judge Mathis is heartwarming and inspirational. Greg Mathis was a gang member who dropped out of school, was in and out of jail and then overcame these adversities to become the youngest judge in Michigan history. Once the inspiration for his own court show, the Judge''s personal story is now the subject of a new book, Inner City Miracle, which was released in October 2002 by Ballantine/One World Books. Mathis along with seasoned writer, Blair Walker, co-wrote the autobiography to document the Judge''s triumph over odds. The memoir takes a candid look at the Judge''s rise to success from the projects of Detroit. Once a juvenile delinquent himself, the Judge provides readers with a more revealing look into his inspirational transformation and to his ongoing efforts to help others. Inner City Miracle was well received by book reviewers across the country. The success of the book earned Mathis the prestigious Blackboard Non-fiction Book of the Year Award in May 2003. Mathis has been called upon as a regular contributor to national television programs, including Larry King Live, Politically Incorrect and CNN''s Talk Back Live, to discuss his opinions on issues of the day, including terrorism and national security, unique sentencing and Affirmative Action. Greg Mathis has quickly become a household name with a broad and loyal following. His growing popularity led to a featured role on The WB sitcom The Steve Harvey Show during the May 2001 sweeps in which he played himself. He has also had major media exposure, appearing on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, the Today morning show, The Rosie O''Donnell Show, The Other Half, The Caroline Rhea Show, TNT''s Listen Up! Charles Barkley with Ernie Johnson and BET Tonight with Ed Gordon, while being featured in People magazine as well as national and local press across the country. When he is not on the bench, Mathis makes it a point to give back to the community and to those in need of guidance as he once was growing up on the streets of Detroit. In May 2002, Mathis hosted a Self-Empowerment Expo in Detroit designed to encourage individuals to develop and achieve worthy goals and to help prepare people for a more prosperous future. Based on the success of the first Expo, a second Self-Empowerment Expo is scheduled in Detroit for August 2003. The Expo offers speakers, workshops and multiple other resources offering family and business oriented guidance. Mathis has also hit the streets helping others by joining the fight for various causes drawing national attention as well as supporters. This year Mathis has been named the new spokesman for Literacy Volunteers of America in Detroit. Joining the fight against adult literacy in Detroit, Mathis will help raise awareness of the literacy problem and encourage people who need help. Mathis'' commitment to his community and local fans was acknowledged in April 2002 when he was asked to throw out the first pitch at a Chicago Cubs vs. San Francisco Giants game at Wrigley Field in Chicago, IL. The game was broadcast live on the show''s Chicago affiliate. In June 2002, Mathis also threw out the first pitch in Comerica Park in Detroit, MI at a Detroit Tigers game, also televised on our Detroit affiliate. In addition to starring in his own television show, during the show''s second season, Judge Mathis broke new ground when he took his show on the road and starred in the critically acclaimed stage production Been There Done That which played to sold out audiences in 29 cities and received national press attention. Been There Done That is a musical drama based on Mathis'' life designed to inspire men and women to overcome life''s obstacles. Along with Judge Mathis, the play featured gospel music icon Fred Hammond, Phyllis Yvonne Stickney and was written by Teresa Coleman-Wash. Playing a role parallel to his own life-story enabled Mathis another opportunity to help change lives. Mathis has also served as the host of Judgement Call, a weekly radio show in which he answered legal questions from callers on Chicago radio station WGCI. On the first Monday of every month, Mathis also joined WGCI''s morning drive host Howard McGee to co-host Ask the Judge, a law related segment of the morning show. Mathis grew up in the housing projects of Detroit, and as a teenager was well on his way to a life of crime. But, as a promise to his dying mother, he vowed to change his ways. At age 18, he turned his life around?earning his GED (high school equivalency), continuing on to college and earning a jurist doctorate degree. Despite tremendous obstacles and odds, Mathis became the youngest judge in Michigan''s history and was elected a Superior Court Judge for Michigan''s 36th District. It pains me to think of all the hurt that I caused my neighborhood, my community, my family, said Mathis. That''s why I''ve made a lifetime commitment to redeeming myself and changing my life and helping to inspire other street youth to redeem themselves and change their lives. Now, with a daily television show, I hope to be able to reach even more people with my story and, hopefully, make an even bigger difference in the lives of others. Sensitive to social issues of the day, Mathis strives to involve himself with a political agenda and initiatives that fight to improve the system. His life of public service began when he joined the staff of Detroit City Councilman, Clyde Cleveland. He then went on to work for legendary Detroit Mayor Coleman A. Young as Manager of Detroit Neighborhood City Halls. He has served as a campaign coordinator for numerous successful political campaigns, including the 1989 re-election campaign of Young, and as a national assistant and Detroit campaign manager in Jesse Jackson''s historic Michigan presidential campaign victory in 1988. His interest in social reform has served as a catalyst for his career on the bench. In addition to public service, Mathis'' civil rights activism also began during his college years at Eastern Michigan University, leading groups like Free South Africa. After graduating from college in 1983, Mathis continued his activism working on Jackson''s Operation P.U.S.H. and the Rainbow Coalition, where he led numerous protests and marches and continues to be a member today. In October 2000, Judge Mathis'' efforts were recognized by the Rainbow/ PUSH Coalition when they honored him with an Advocacy Award for his tireless civil rights work. Judge Mathis is committed to helping troubled youth in and out of the courtroom. In 1986, Mathis and his wife co-founded Young Adults Asserting Themselves (Y.A.A.T), a non-profit youth agency that serves thousands of young people. The foundation counsels youth from the ages of 17-25 about career and job opportunities, provides job training, and offers school and job placement services. The foundation has also opened four pre-schools in Detroit. In his various fundraising efforts, Mathis has raised and donated over $2 million for a variety of civil rights, political, church and youth causes. In 1997, Mathis'' life was the subject of a musical called Inner City Miracle, written and directed by playwright Ron Milner. Judge Mathis is married and a father of four children. Warner Bros.

Imagine Cup 2006. Behind the scenes of the Short Film Competition...
This year, the finals for the Imagine Cup nbsp;brought student competitors from 180 countries all over the world to India to compete in 6 different categories. I focused my attention on the short film nbsp;competition. There were six teams: Canada , Poland , Taiwan (China) , Turkey , USA (Lansing) nbsp; and USA (Echo). The Short Film Invitational highlights the art and science of telling a story. Students are challenged to share a perspective on the theme of the Imagine Cup but moreover they are asked to express themselves in a unique medium that still challenges even the most veteran of filmmakers. From concept and storyboard, to footage and editing, these participants must be able to put it all together and move an audience. Unique perspectives and creativity abound in this process but the story must still come through the digital media and have a strong purpose and meaning. Only the most talented young filmmakers will even attempt such a feat. I followed the Canadian team for 3 days while they worked, slept, ate, conquered problems and created magic. Take a look at my journey with Team Canada. Also, the event itself garnered tons of media attention nbsp;and it promises to be even bigger next year! Register now nbsp;for next year and be a part of history. Canadian Entry Taiwan Entry Turkey's Entry Poland Entry USA (Lansing) Entry (more...)
