Tyler Perry’s grit, determination, and narrative talent has placed him in a creative world of his own, thanks to his Madea film franchise and his successful foray into television.  Perry, who acts, write, produces, and directs much of his material, has received his share of support from the African-American community, and he has also made a point of giving back to his devoted fan base.

Perry loves the diversity displayed in his film and television crews, but he makes a fine point that one is not hired based on their ethnicity.  To land a job with Mr. Perry, hard work, tenacity, and talent are per-requisites, especially since the filmmaker says he runs a “tight ship.” (Click on the media bar to hear Tyler Perry)
