Motown Maurice was born in Brooklyn, New York to West Indian parents and raised in Tampa, Florida. He earned his degree in Broadcast Journalism from Florida A&M University (FAMU). Initially, he planned to become a news reporter but after one television internship, he decided to shift gears. Following his entrepreneurial spirit, Motown founded his own video/photography company known as Motown Maurice Productions, Inc. His company served his community by preserving the memories of special events such as: weddings, family reunions, and talent shows.After college, Motown returned to Tampa with the spirit of his community in heart. He produced and directed his first full feature documentary entitled Echoes of a Dream: The Spiritual and Historical Perspective of the Civil Rights Movement. Citywide name recognition opened up the opportunity to spearhead Tampa's 3rd Annual Haitian Flag Day Celebration and he also taught a photography class to inner city youth.Motown is a bona fide community organizer and he takes pride in bringing people of all backgrounds together. Motown's passions led him to create a live interactive discussion forum entitled Wide aWoke Wednesday's. Once a month for 2 & ½ years, Motown moderated a consistent platform that addressed the community's concerns and issues. The program featured several expert panelists and impacted thousands of lives. Through this endeavor, Motown began to realize his own comedic strengths. By combining his sense of humor, charisma, and leadership, he discovered his calling in the late-night arena.By leveraging his well-established business relationships, Motown Maurice set forth with a vision, and a mission, to make Tampa the next destination for late-night television. In order to complete this epic undertaking, he mobilized over 50 volunteers, maxed out four credit cards, and recruited one generous sponsor. Motown then reserved multiple paid-programming slots on Friday nights to make this grassroots movement a reality. It aired on the WTTA-MyTV Tampa Bay station. The coverage area encompassed Tampa and nine surrounding counties. On January 23, 2010, "The Motown Maurice Show" premiered in front of a live studio audience. The immediate success of the show earned him a Key to the City presented by Mayor Pam Iorio.Later that year, Motown officially relocated to Los Angeles to further his late-night quest. Trained at the well-respected Uprights Citizens Brigade, Motown was twice awarded the highly selective diversity scholarship. In 2013, he founded the Quarterly Wrap Festival. The event was tailored to create opportunities for actors and filmmakers four times a year at zero cost to its participants.One of Motown's most prized creations is his web series entitled "The Late Night Experiment." It's a semi auto-biographical dramedy that follows the plight of a relentless adventurer willing to sacrifice everything in order to achieve his destiny. There are a total of 6 seasons, 36 episodes and 6 behind the scenes documentaries.Currently, Motown mentors a teenager and he's a champion minor league basketball coach. In addition, Motown advocates for mental health and serves as the creative director of a nonprofit organization called Aaron's House. Much of Motown's achievements have received positive acclaim in several newspapers and magazines. His works and actions speak volumes, which has made him a respected figure with his fan base. His breakout lead role in the feature film Snake Outta Compton releases in 2018 and he's anticipating a trilogy. Pre-production of Motown's autobiographical screenplay is currently underway and he foresees a fall 2018 production schedule.
