Who’s Who In Black Cleveland

The Who’s Who publications are an opportunity for us to afford a measure of recognition to the African-American men and women who have made their mark in their specific occupations, professions, or in service to others in their community.

A sincere effort is made to include those whose positions or accomplishments in their chosen fields are significant and those whose contributions to community affairs whether city-wide or on the neighborhood level have improved the quality of life for all of us.

If submitting your information to be included, please be sure to read the SAMPLE BIO and SAMPLE HEADSHOT information and follow the instructions carefully.
