ABOUT JOHNNY

Johnny Coleman II is an anthropologist who creates marketing campaigns and tours using anthropology.  

His work helps to reach ethnic consumers.  His work is with individuals, organizations and businesses.  He conducts heritage site tours, museums visits, public talks and hosts special events that teach the culture of indigenous people from around the world. 

Johnny's portfolio includes the promotion of festivals, books, film, political campaigns, tours, radio shows, Fair Trade and Direct Trade coffee, museums and more—all based in ethnic marketing.

He has studied in Cairo, Egypt and Israel and is the former research assistant to the late Dr. Lucille St. Hoyme in the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History.
