Little Marvin is a NY-based comic, visual & performance artist, fashion designer, musician and film producer. His work often satirizes the commodification/appropriation of race and the fetishization of black masculinity in popular culture, couched in a deceptively simplistic, candy-colored Pop Art idiom.

In 2006 he executive produced The Time is Now, a documentary by Kenneth Brady. The film deals with US involvement in war crimes abroad and the need for a US Truth & Reconciliation Commission to aid survivors of torture.

Little Marvin has been featured in Esquire Magazine's Style Issue (March '07, Volume 147 No.3), interviewed in DNR Magazine's They Are Wearing: New York and been photographed by acclaimed fashion photographer Christopher Griffith.

His debut album 28 Days Means 28 Ways to Say Happy Black History Month is expected to be released in summer of 2007, and features the singles Not Black Enough and Ode to Little Black Johnson. The album will consist of 28 previously unreleased tracks ("one for every day of the smallest month of the year" the artist says).
