ABOUT BARBARA
ORIGIN
From an early age, Barbara was curious about storytelling. She remembers sitting in the den watching television while her older sisters were out and her parents were busy at home. Even as a five-year-old girl, she realised she didn’t just want to be entertained; she was already thinking about how to make the story better. As she grew older, she stayed observant and learned how to use her voice. From that moment on, storytelling became her revolution.
CULTURAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT
Barbara’s commitment to inspiring and merging social justice with art and culture is praised by participants in her programming and marketing for United Nations NGOs. These endeavors led to the production of projects to uplift the legacy of political icon Shirley Chisholm and tennis great Arthur Ashe. Barbara produced the national unveiling of the Shirley Chisholm Forever Stamp in collaboration with the United States Postal Service (USPS), for which she received a Presidential Proclamation from President Barack Obama. She has produced content and events on women and politics in partnership with governmental institutions such as the Office of the City of New York. As a Salzburg Fellow, she collaborated with 42 leaders from 20 countries representing 39 organizations on Civic and Civil Engagement: Identity, Belonging, and Education in the 21st Century at the Salzburg Global Seminar in Salzburg, Austria.
STRATEGIC CREATIVITY
The uniqueness of Barbara and the B-Bullard team lies in their ability to illuminate the past, present, and future by creating signature and pioneering campaigns that engage consumers and generate buzz. Barbara’s experience led to the rebranding of nonprofit institutions, including a world-class performing arts campus and the state-of-the-art reconstruction of a historical theatre located in the highest concentration of African Americans in the United States. Her skills and the incredible team have thrived in the public art and tourism space, curating in partnership with New York governmental agencies. Barbara also produced an art and interactive residency at the World Trade Oculus, mentoring Parsons School of Design students with Spatial as a sponsor.
MEDIA STRATEGIST
As a publicist, Barbara has supported leading actors and directors in new project development with a fresh approach to engagement. Her consulting skills in team development on social justice and inclusivity motivated the entire staff of an international fashion company and cultural institution. She is no stranger on The Hill, having produced critically conscious stories offering a platform for marginalized voices in collaboration with the Congressional Media Caucus. On DEI issues, Barbara has served as a publicist to enhance the exposure of inclusivity in large corporations, and world-renowned theatre and entertainment institutions. She also produced a DEI video campaign focused on theater and entertainment institutions, further highlighting her commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
AUTHOR & PRODUCER
As the author of the book “RE LEASE + BE COME,” with quotes from renowned global luminaries, Barbara seeks to help restore the integrity of the human spirit through art, words, and resources for healing emotional wounds. As a guest speaker at The Library of Congress, on the program with Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, Congresswoman Barbara Lee, and the Smithsonian, Barbara spoke on her role as an entrepreneur and President of the Shirley Chisholm Cultural Institute. She also produced the historic visit of the Congressional Black Caucus to Brooklyn in tribute to Shirley Chisholm, a mini-documentary in collaboration with Documentarian Abby Ginzberg exhibits in the Museum of the City of New York’s exhibition: “Changing the Face of Democracy.” Her storytelling extends to producing Unbought Unbossed Conversations at NeueHouse New York, home to a curated collective defining the fields of design, publishing, the arts, entertainment, and philanthropy.
