100% with Trisha Mann-Grant

Chicagoan, Trisha Mann-Grant, attended Roosevelt University for Music Education with a scholarship in Voice Performance. While there, Trisha became a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority and was crowned Miss Black Chicago. She reached many students through motivational speaking at graduations and assemblies; while being a positive role model in her community as well. Trisha was a print model in Ebony and Jet magazines, Raveen and Fashion Fair and toured the country doing hair shows, national billboards and commercials for Luster Hair products. She lovingly said farewell to the “Windy City” to pursue a career in acting and writing in L.A., California. Within a month, Trisha booked her first TV appearance with the late Lou Rawls and sports talk show host Terry Bradshaw. She then explored the world of theater in The Great Women of Color, portraying the Civil rights activist Ida B. Wells. The Drama-logue said, “Trisha’s performance was anger-personified”. This theatrical experience led to many more including, The Visit, An Evening of Shakespeare with Charles Dutton where Trisha played opposite Mr. Dutton as Lady Mac Beth, The NAACP award winning Jeffery’s Plan in which Trisha was the over-bearing boss of Kellita Smith and then the wife of soulful, crooner Howard Hewett in Say Amen.
