In the mid-1980s, LGBTQ+ trailblazer Edwards carved his path alongside icons like Donna Summer and Joan Rivers. Over the decades, he built a reputation as a multi-award-winning talent executive, client relations rep, producer, writer, and occasional performer – working with some of the most recognizable names in show business: Cindy Crawford, Susan Sarandon, Melissa Rivers, Whoopi Goldberg, Farrah Fawcett, Shirley Jones, Naomi Judd, and Vanessa Williams—just to name a few. His legacy even takes the stage in the Tony-nominated \"Summer: The Donna Summer Musical,\" where Edwards is portrayed—reminding us that the voices behind the scenes deserve to be honored just as boldly as those in front of them. Now, Edwards returns with his third collection of life stories, \"Come Sit With Me and Let's Talk\"—an unfiltered, heartfelt companion to \"Enter Miss Thang\" (2013) and \"I Might Have Been Queen\" (2019). This latest volume distills Edwards' singular journey into the intimacy of a heart-to-heart, blending the most memorable stories from his earlier books with fresh recollections, untold chapters, and photos. He shares the triumphs and trials that shaped a career defined by resilience, recognition, and influence—offering perspective, encouragement, and the kind of advice that only comes from living it. A proud godparent to Cariss, Justus, and Ruel, Edwards resides in Los Angeles and remains an active member of The National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences and The Country Music Association, while supporting organizations such as God's Love We Deliver and The UCLA Library.
