More About DeVon Franklin

Named one of the Top 10 Producers to Watch by Variety and an EBONY Magazine Power 100, Franklin is dedicated to uplifting and empowering the masses through entertainment. He is the CEO of Franklin Entertainment and has produced some of Hollywood’s most successful inspirational films including Miracles from Heaven, The Star, and Breakthrough to the tune of more than $186MM at the box office. More recent projects include Flamin’ Hot for Disney, Kingdom Business for BET+, and the upcoming Daring to Live for Amazon.

Adding to his success, Franklin is also a New York Times bestselling author of titles including The Wait, The Success Commandments, The Truth About Men, and Produced by Faith. His latest book, Live Free, is a guide to self-fulfillment and happiness by rejecting society’s expectations and setting one’s own. It Takes a Woman, Franklin’s audio-only memoir with Audible, introduces us to the women who raised him—a “village of love” that selflessly came together to shape him into the man he is today in the wake of his father’s tragic death when Franklin was only nine years old.

Franklin serves as Vice President and Governor-at-Large on the Board of Governors for the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences. In a former role as co-chair of the Board’s Representation and Inclusion Taskforce, he spearheaded the initiative to implement historic diversity and inclusion guidelines for Oscars eligibility. Prior to starting his own production company, he held executive roles at MGM Studios and Columbia Pictures.

The driving force behind Franklin’s work—whether he’s writing, producing, or speaking—is an impassioned commitment to helping audiences become the best version of themselves and achieve success in every aspect of life.
