Walking With Legends

Walking with Legends" is a first of its kind 'backstage pass' into the world of celebrities, from the POV of a prominent industry bodyguard, who was secretly also a photographer. As we share content from our channels, you will step into the extraordinary world of James Anderson, a former Nation of Islam bodyguard who became the trusted protector of icons like Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Donna Summer, Richard Pryor, Sugar Ray Leonard, Boyz II Men, The Jacksons, Magic Johnson, El DeBarge and many more. More than just a bodyguard, Anderson was a confidant, strategist, and a devoted father with a passion for photography. So much so that in recent years, thousands of photo negatives that feature these aforementioned icons would be hidden away in unmarked Tupperware bins, until today. The James Anderson Jr. photography collection has now been fully digitized and it features photography that spans from the late 1960's to just before 2010. Join us on a captivating journey through his life, as told by his youngest son, Jazen Anderson. Discover never-before-seen photos and video footage and hear firsthand accounts from legends themselves. Walking With Legends aims to be a testament to the power of human connection and the hidden stories behind the stars we admire."My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give me another person, he believed in me."- Jim Valvano
