Introducing the Female 'Spike Lee' and the First Afro-American Film


The first time in the history of the U.S. Small Business Administration

two producers were funded in Los Angeles, California. The female recipient was Sonja Dunson,

producer, actress, writer, former beauty queen, former publisher and Speech Pathologist.



Sonja was born and reared in Detroit, Michigan. She is a graduate of the University of Michigan. She

was a series regular on three television series and has been seen in over 22 commercials.



Her big break came when the SBA decided to underwrite her movie project. Sonja diligently submitted

all of the requirements. In less than a month she was approved to film an interracial love story she had

written entitled, "You Can't Buy Love." Sonja was the executive producer, producer, co-star, co-casting

director, locations director and she wrote the title song, "You Can't Buy Love." She also co-wrote

another song in the movie, "So Much Feeling In Your Love." During the day Sonja was a Speech

Pathologist and during the evening she was producing and acting in her movie. People in the music

business have convinced Sonja that she should be a strong contender for an Academy Award

nomination for one of the two songs she wrote.



"You Can't Buy Love" also captured the heart of the first Afro-American Film Distributor, Mr. Fred

Williams of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Mr. Williams had been a theatre chain owner over the last 40

years. He also owned a chain of night clubs. Many top producers always valued Mr. William's critiques

and expertise about movies. Mr. Williams had been in the theatre business since he was a teenager,

selling pop corn, ushering, projectionist, theatre manager and finally owning his own chain of theatres.



After Mr. Williams screened Sonja's movie he decided not to retire from the theatre business

completely but to become a Film Distributor since he knows all of the theatre owners. "You Can't Buy

Love" is a PG-13 theatrical release. It is a love story placed in the Grosse Pointe and Beverly Hills

areas involving all races of people seeking love and professional glory at any expense.



Mr. David Violi is the handsome star. The director is a young UCLA graduate, Mr. Garrick Wilkes who

comes from a very respected theatrical family.



Mr. Williams states "Hollywood has never produced a picture like this one."
