Circa 1985. Do you remember that song "We Are the World"? Well there was actually a children's version of the song.

The photograph is of myself in the recording studio with other familiar child stars at the time.

I tried to do like a collage but didn't know how blend in the split screen.

In this photo are Kim Fields, Alfonso Ribeiro, Drew Barrymore, Danny Pintauro, Alyssa Milano, and Fergie from The Black Eyed Peas. (best viewed in largest format)

Circa 1985. A horror movie I starred in. Terrible movie but extremely fun to do! I'm probably one of the few black actors in a horror movie that didn't get killed off, lol!

Would you believe it was written in the script to kill me off---a little kid at the time! I was supposed to get my head chopped off in the beginning of Part 6 but refused to do it. They had to re-arrange the script and my contract.

A fan wanted me to sign it and send it back to him and I thought why not scan a copy of the DVD cover before I send it off since I don't own a copy.
