FROM QUEENS NY TO HOLLYWOOD....

Born and raised in Queens, Tracey Dukes was raised by a single father who worked in the New York theater industry. By the time he was five, Tracey was nipping at his fathers heels sharing his aspirations to be an actor and writer. Still a somewhat shy child, by ten Tracey was writing plays as he waited for his father to finish his theater shifts , the Apollo being one. In his early teens, Tracey was acting in NYU student films while still imagining his own projects. Growing up quality time with his father always meant watching movies and Tracey studied the films as much as he watched them.

Tracey has had great success modeling for runway and print. His features include XXL, Source, Coogi catalogue, as well as runway work for BETs Rip The Runway event for Miami Fashion Week. His campaign work spans from Akoo to Sean Jean for whom he is currently a fit model. With plenty of experience in front of the camera as a model, Tracey is poised to take his success to the next level with his entrance into acting. Determined to be more than just another pretty face Tracey is focused on gaining as much acting experience as possible while continuing to develop his acting skills. With classic movie icons like Marlon Brando, Robert DeNiro and Sidney Poitier and modern action heroes like Will Smith and Tom Cruise to inspire him Tracey Dukes is ready to pay his dues and make his mark. Tracey has just relocated to Los Angeles and signed with Cheyenne Martin Management.

Happy Birthday to Rev Dr. Martin Luther King

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would have turned 81 on January 15, 2010. Our nation honors our most prominent civil rights leaders every year on his birthday (observing the following Monday), making sure his “Dream” of service and equality for all races and creeds lives on.

What are you doing today to keep the dream alive?

Born January 15, 1929, Dr. King was an advocate for civil rights and equality, not only for African Americans, but also for all races and ethnicities. As a prominent leader in the civil rights movement in America during the 1960s, Dr. King lead the famous Montgomery Alabama Bus Boycott Movement, helped found the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and then went on to lead the “March on Washington” where he delivered the world famous, “I Have a Dream” speech. Dr. King continued to be a peaceful warrior in fighting for equal rights until his assassination in Memphis, Tennessee on April 4, 1968. His memory was finally honored with a national holiday in 1986.

People of all races, religions, ethnicities and creeds can benefit from the message he instilled in his listeners. We are all taught about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s life as children; however, I encourage everyone to partake in an activity on this day to commemorate his life and message.

Below is a Happy Birthday song by Stevie Wonder! When I was younger I didn't understand the lyrics to this song. I just thought it was a Happy Birthday song... Now that I am older, I can appreciate the lyrics.  Happy Birthday Rev Dr. Martin Luther King!
