SPADY MUSEUM WELCOMES TEENAGE CEO, FOUNDATION CHAIR AND AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR RJ TOLSON

                May 20 in Delray Beach



WHAT/WHO:

Teenage entrepreneur, philanthropist and award-winning author R.J. Tolson will visit the Spady Cultural Heritage Museum for a special public book signing of his novel, Chaos Chronicles Book 1: Zephyr The West Wind.



Tolson, 19, will be visiting South Florida to promote his book at Alonzo and Tracy Mourning Senior High and Highland Oaks Middle School in North Miami; however, those events are not open to the public. Tolson was invited by Spady Museum Director Charlene Jones to sign his novel and answer questions about his multi-faceted enterprise, as part of the museum’s cultural and educational outreach programming.



Tolson has been celebrated recently for being named a Beverly Hills Book Awards Finalist for his novel, Chaos Chronicles Book 1: Zephyr The West Wind.



However, writing is only one of Tolson’s many interests, talents and enterprises. He is also the CEO of RJTIO and divisions RJTINC, Forever Trust Charity and RL Infinity International, President of Sages of Essence and Living Writers, and the author of the Chaos Chronicles series. He is currently working a musical compilation, “Human,” to be released soon, and on the sequel to his first work, "Hugh The Southern Flame" & Blood Red Love. He is also attending Whittier College in Whittier, CA.



“I saw this as a great opportunity to inspire our young people – and some older ones – with the energy, focus and success of this young man,” Jones said. “The art he’s creating in the form of music, literature and spoken word was simply too cool and innovative not to share with Delray Beach.”
