Hello. Thank you for clicking on this link, and I hope you enjoy this essay. Writing a book was the genesis of my blogging and becoming a video content creator. I have published part one of my book project entitled, The Engineers: A Western New York Basketball Story. It is currently available on Amazon in eBook, hardcover, and paperback formats. The paperback edition is now also available on IngramSpark. Shortly I will be selling signed hardcover and paperback copies on my online store entitled Big Words Authors. You can place an order now if you want a signed copy. There is also a page discussing the book. Please consider visiting it to learn more about the project and see promotional content I’ve created surrounding the project. And now, on to our feature presentation.
Interviewing Dr. Lee Phillips
I interviewed Dr. Lee Phillips on my YouTube channel entitled, Big Discussions76 Science and Technology in 2024. I worked with Lee for several years at the David M. Brown Arlington Planetarium prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, which is where we met. There was likewise a lot that I didn’t know about Dr. Phillips which I learned about during our discussion. In our interview, we discussed his science training, research experience, and books that he has authored in the six segments below. I was particularly interested in his experiences as an author, as I am a newly self-published author myself. You can learn more about Dr. Phillips’ books Einstein’s Tutor and Practical Julia on Amazon. Consider subscribing to my science channel if you watch any of the segments below. Best regards.
Anwar Y. Dunbar is a Regulatory Scientist. Being a naturally curious person, he is also a student of all things. He earned his Ph.D. in Pharmacology from the University of Michigan and his Bachelor’s Degree in General Biology from Johnson C. Smith University (JCSU). Prior to starting the Big Words Blog Site, Anwar published and contributed to numerous research articles in competitive scientific journals reporting on his research from graduate school and postdoctoral years. After falling in love with writing, he contributed to the now defunct Examiner.com, and the Edvocate where he regularly wrote about: Education-related stories/topics, Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), Financial Literacy; as well as conducted interviews with notable individuals such as actor and author Hill Harper. Having many influences, one of his most notable heroes is author, intellectual and speaker, Malcolm Gladwell, author of books including Outliers and David and Goliath.
Anwar has his hands in many, many activities. In addition to writing, Anwar actively mentors youth, works to spread awareness of STEM careers, serves on the Board of Directors of the Friends of the David M.
