Kwame Jackson from "The Apprentice 1" takes part in a Trader Monthly photo shoot with models in front of Trinity Church December 20, 2004 in New York City.
Kwame was a runner up on Donald Trump's hit show "The Apprentice". He earned a B.S. in Business Administration from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and MBA from Harvard. He is also a member of Kappa Alpha Psi, a professional and social fraternal organization for high acheiving African American men.
Kwame accepts the President's Image Award (on behalf of actor Taye Diggs) from Frances W. Ferguson, President of Metro NY Chapter of the National Black MBA Association at the 15th Annual Black Tie Gala and Scholarship Awards Dinner, held at the Westin New York in Times Square
Yeah, I shook the former President's hand and got his autograph too.
Kwame joins former President William Jefferson Clinton, Metro NY Chapter President, Frances W. Ferguson, CNN reporter Suzanne Malveaux and other honorees at the 15th Annual Black Tie Gala and Scholarship Awards Dinner
SHouldnt Omorosa be there as well? DIdnt she work in the WHite HOuse all those years with the President...and she couldnt swindle an invite??? SHEESH, what was she doing there?
I was talking about being with Prez Dilly Willy... she supposedly worked for the man and cant get an invite?... she must not have been too high on the totem pole at the "white house"...
If CNN wants to exceed Foxnews, they need young blood.
Kwame is sought after for his TV appearances. It looks like he's well on his careers. He seems to like to take a lower profile while other business opportunities are seeking him out. But looks like he might not hold this job that long and moving on. Some resent him for taking their jobs away. Kwame create new jobs.... like for his friend Troy and those loyal to him.

CNN to Kwame: You're Hired
By Staff -- Broadcasting & Cable, 11/14/2004
Having recently shuttered its CNNfn financial-news channel, Cable News Network resolved to beef up its business programming on the main network.
Kwame Jackson—former stockbroker, first-season runner-up on The Apprentice, and non-journalist—has been recruited by the news network for the pilot of a show that CNNers refer to as “Inside the Actor’s Studio for CEOs.” It will feature Jackson interviewing business leaders and pop culture figures about the arc of their careers.
Jackson’s appearance at CNN is not playing too well with experienced hands.
