Tyler Perry
As a veteran of filmmaking for two decades, Tyler Perry has succeeded in creating movies and plays that resonate with mostly black audiences. His “Madea” character and franchise has been one of the most financially rewarding artistic imaginations in American art history
Perry earned his place on this list having opened what is the biggest film production studio in the United States this year.
In a multibillion-dollar industry where black stories and actors are not disproportionately sidelined, Perry’s ambitions of providing a realistic platform for his kind is laudable.
