"Writing, dancing, singing, playing the keys. These are the arts of choice for Solomon Dixon. After performing as a bboy at colleges around the country in his early 20's, Solomon Dixon turned his efforts elsewhere. He travels around the country sharing his passion for writing with adolescents in a way that develops a writer at their very core. While he still breakdances exhibitionally, he has turned his focus towards young writers and the writing programs in schools.
This comes after he co-founded The Living Poets Society with a local group of spoken word artists. These poets compete in poetry slams around the United States involving individual and group pieces. Solomon Dixon has competed at the national level for slam poetry as well as scored in the Top 50 in the world for Spoken Word Art Slam Poetry.
Solomon Dixon moves the fine art of motivation and verbal expression to elementary, middle and high schools around the nation to inspire our youngest writers.
Solomon is a native to Syracuse, NY and currently lives in Buffalo, NY with his wife and two young sons. He and his family travel as often as they can to explore other views around the country." [1]
