Lennie Little-White

Lennie Little-White was born in the parish of Saint James, to a schoolteacher mother who had embraced the ideas of Marcus Garvey, and counts the singer Jimmy Cliff among his cousins. A pupil at Cornwall College and then Jamaica College, he studied film in Toronto and then in Illinois, where Rex Nettleford had encouraged him to work towards a second degree. He founded Mediamix, the first private production company run by a black Jamaican, which has produced since 1994 a serial followed throughout the Caribbean, directed documentaries and published in 2025 a book of photographs and poems.
