| CIVIC EFFORT | Davis has been a board member of the Nicklaus Children’s Hospital for over 10 years and chairman for the last four years. |
| SOMETHING SURPRISING | I was both an executive producer and actor in a movie entitled Playin’ for Love created by Robert Townsend. |
| ADMIRES | Sheldon Anderson, recently named chairman and CEO of Coconut Grove-based Grove Bank and Trust, the oldest bank in Miami. As both a distinguished corporate leader and an African-American leader, Sheldon has an incredible reputation for the talent, impact and grace he brings to any environment. I admire how he paved the way for many of us in demonstrating that race should not be an obstacle for playing a key leadership role in your community. |
