Kevin Kirkwood sits down with Ezra J. Ali-Dow, an actor, arts educator, and poet currently teaching at the Savannah Cultural Arts Center. He was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA, where the influence of his freedom to explore the city and its pockets of nature grew into a determination to explore the unknown. He attributes much of his artistry to his family and communities. Ezra aims to match discipline with a deep reserve of play and humor. Recently at the Cultural Arts Center, he co-curated the AdriftxCollision gallery which celebrates the synthesis of visual arts and writing.
