Autorenporträt
Randall Woodfin was born in Birmingham, Alabama, and after four years at Morehouse College has lived in Birmingham ever since. He worked at City Hall (in jobs for the mayor and the city council) and for the Jefferson County Committee on Economic Opportunity, attended Cumberland School of Law at Samford University, and, after obtaining his law degree, accepted a job in the City of Birmingham Law Department. Outside of his job as an assistant city attorney, he sharpened his skills as a political organizer, working on campaigns at the local, state, and federal level. After serving on the Birmingham Board of Education, he ran for mayor, won an upset victory, and is serving his second term in office. He was featured speaker at the 2020 Democratic National Convention.  Edward T. Bowser is an award-winning journalist, founder of Soul In Stereo, and deputy director of communications for the City of Birmingham Mayor's Office, where he helps shape the city's voice and vision.
