About Chetachi

Chetachi A. Egwu is writer, producer, filmmaker, voice actor, artist, performer and professor raised in Buffalo, NY, of Nigerian parentage. She earned a BA in Communication from the University of Buffalo in 1996, then moved to on to Howard University in Washington, DC, where she completed a Masters (1999) and Ph.D. (2005) in Mass Communication.

She has served as a faculty member in the Communication departments at Howard University, Morgan State University and The George Washington University. She is currently Assistant Professor of Communication Studies at Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, FL.
