Rolonda Watts on Brunch in the Basement with JaVonne & Terez

Most of us know the recognizable name Rolonda Watts due to her talk show in the 1990's or maybe due to her journalistic career. She certainly was a sight to behold on ABC's Eye Witness News. Or maybe you recall her being on some of your favorite soap operas or the television show "Sister Sister" or maybe you know her as a remarkably talented voice over artist. Or perhaps you have seen her recently as a stand up comedian. I mean, what hasn't she done or what can't she do??? 

New York City and Newark, NJ each established an official "Rolonda Day" for her journalistic, community, and humanitarian works. She has served on the Board of Directors for Literacy Volunteers of New York City, the Board of Advisors for the Rahway State Prison's Lifers Group, the Board of Advisors for New York University School of Dentistry, and the Board of Advisors for the United Negro College Fund. She has volunteered as a tutor for H.E.L.P. - the Hollywood Education and Literacy Project. She is a member of Women in Film, AFTRA, and SAG. The Spelman College Alumna Association awarded Ro for her community service. And the McDonald's Corporation honored her as a "Broadcast Legend". 

Today, she joins us for Brunch in the Basement
