Greg L. Davis

Greg L. Davis was born and raised in Austin, Texas. In his sophomore year in high school, Greg discovered both a gifting and interest in writing, and it was at that time he developed the discipline of journaling. In his mid-20s, Greg began to experiment with writing poetry and would eventually start a tradition of crafting poems for family members, most notably his wife La Tonya, on special occasions.

After graduating with an undergraduate degree in Business Management from the University of Texas, San Antonio, Greg spent 14 years in corporate America before serving as an associate pastor for 15 months. During those years, Greg was frequently chosen to write organizational communication pieces and, in late 1998, he took a nine-month sabbatical from the corporate world to serve as a grant writer for a child welfare agency in Chicago. Around 2010, Greg began putting together a fictional piece of writing which he would eventually seek to self-publish.

Of all the work he has ever done from a writing perspective, Greg considers the Friday afternoon in January of 2023 when he made the commitment to become a professional author and speaker to have been a sacred moment of demarcation, and Black Man: A Prophecy of Hope for the Times Ahead is the first of many books that will be passionately written from the depths of his soul; books designed to encourage, inspire, and empower a generation of growth-minded seekers of love, truth, righteousness and justice to commit to living lives rooted in excellence, and which are intentionally purposeful.

Greg and his wife, La Tonya, have three adult children and live in Houston, Texas.
