Since the 1980’s, Brian Edwards - multi-award winning celebrity talent executive, producer, writer and occasional performer - has worked with many of the biggest names in the history of show business.  A brief sampling includes:  Donna Summer, Joan Rivers, Cindy Crawford, Susan Sarandon, Melissa Rivers, Whoopi Goldberg, Farrah Fawcett, Shirley Jones, Naomi Judd, and Vanessa Williams.

In 2013, with the publication of his debut book, Enter Miss Thang, another title attached to Edwards is “gay icon.” His unabashedly honest and side-splitting memoir became a national best seller and received several awards along the way, including top honors at The National Indie Excellence Awards, The International Book Awards and the IBPA Awards, to ultimately become the most honored LGBT non-fiction book of 2014. 

In 2019, never one to let the party end, Edwards published his follow-up, titled, I Might Have Been Queen (And Other Things I Didn’t Mention Before), filled with even more colorful stories laced with humor, chaos and inspiration. 

Affirming Edwards' stature and literary following, I Might Have Been Queen, garnered similar attention to receive a string of awards in 2020, including “Best LGBTQ Non-Fiction” and “Best Humor” at the International Book Awards and “Best Entertainment” from the National Indie Excellence Awards. 

“The phrase, ‘I Might Have Been Queen’ represents the times in my life that I’ve won, the times I felt I should have won, and girl, the numerous times that I didn’t!” says Edwards.  “I’m poking fun at the situation – my own personal journey.  Life is too damn short to take so seriously all the time.  With everything going on in the world today, sometimes you just need to give people a reason to laugh.  And I hope I’ve accomplished that within the pages of this book.  Lord, my load is heavy!”

“This new title surprised me, because we all know without a doubt that Brian is the queen – or at least he's the biggest queen I know!  So, get ready, because this time around, he’s a little bolder, more daring, sassy and Diva-ish (if you can imagine that). And rest assured, a good time will be had by all who read this entertaining, heartfelt and incredibly funny next installment about the life of someone I truly adore.”

“We all have them – special people in our lives whom we may not get to see on a regular basis, but we know they are ALWAYS in our corner.  And as far back as I can recall, my dear Brian Edwards has been there for me and for my family. Over the years, he has remained a loving, constant and positive presence in my life. He is truly part of my family. Through ups and downs, Brian has never wavered in his support.”
