WHO'S WHO IN BLACK SOUTH
FLORIDA™ PRESS RELEASES
C.T. Taylor Named New Publisher for
Who’s Who In Black South Florida™
Columbus,
Ohio – Who’s Who Publishing Company announced
today that C.T. Taylor, a longtime South Florida native, has been
named the new associate publisher for Who’s Who
In Black South Florida™.
The edition that premiered last year received overwhelming support
from the black and local business community. More than 540 South
Florida residents attended the reception when the publication was
released for purchase to the general public. The inaugural edition
featured pictures, inspirational stories and biographical data on
South Florida’s African- American leaders and achievers.
Taylor will attempt to fill the shoes of the late Louisville, Kentucky,
native Pamela Hutchinson, who served as the local associate publisher
for the inaugural edition of Who’s Who In Black
South Florida™.
C. Sunny Martin, founder and CEO of Who’s Who Publishing,
states, “Pamela, along with her husband, Jerome Hutchinson,
brought a great deal of enthusiasm and dedicated passion in highlighting
the enormous African-American talent that exists in the South Florida
region. While we thought that Jerome would carry on the successful
legacy that his wife established for our first edition, he has decided
to pursue other business interests.” Martin states further,
“We are sincerely committed to carry on Pamela’s legacy,
and have committed resources to establish an annual Pamela Hutchinson
Scholarship to a deserving journalism student at Nova Southeastern
University.”
Besides being a Miami native, C.T. Taylor is a media innovator with
a career that spans more than 40 years. After working for WMBM in
high school, he launched a career in television broadcasting at
Miami’s leading television station, WTVJ Channel 4, where
he was a pioneer in black television programming. There, he hosted
and produced the awardwinning show, Black Is. Taylor relocated to
Atlanta, Georgia, where he and his family purchased and successfully
operated WPLV-AM in West Point, Georgia, for six years.
Taylor recently worked with Who’s Who Publishing in Atlanta,
Georgia, and Birmingham, Alabama, with Yolanda Reynolds, the southeast
regional publisher. Reynolds, who selected Taylor for the position,
expresses, “Media and marketing are Mr. Taylor’s life
work. He is sincerely dedicated, passionate and excited to represent
Who’s Who in his hometown.”
Taylor states, “What a great opportunity to come home to see
how my city has changed, and to produce stories and promote businesses
that help shape the future of South Florida. I can hardly wait to
get sand in my shoes.”
Martin also agrees, “We are excited to have our own C.T. Taylor
serve as our new South Florida associate publisher. He brings a
wealth of market knowledge and marketing experience, making him
an excellent choice for this position. We also wish Jerome Hutchinson,
who has worked so hard on the publication’s behalf over the
past few months, all the best. As planned, the upcoming edition
of Who’s Who In Black South Florida™
will also include a memorial tribute to Pamela Hutchinson.”
Who’s Who Publishing Company began in Atlanta, Georgia, in
1989 and currently publishes similar annual directories in 22 other

Florida™ will retail
in area bookstores, grocery stores and newsstands throughout the
