About Henry Mamulu
Henry Moses Mamadi Mamulu was born in Liberia, West Africa. He is the husband of Florence Mamulu and the father of Sando, Jimi, Seku, Henry Jr., Lube and Keely. He is a musician, minister, songwriter, dramatist and author.
Mamulu has worked in all areas of the Liberian arts and with traumatized children suffering from the effects of violence of all kinds. He is the 2001 recipient of the Bishop Brown Award for the promulgation of the gospel given annually by the B.W. Harris Alumni Association. He serves on the board of directors of the Global Medical Relief Fund, a foundation that facilitates medical treatment for children from war-torn countries.

Future Plans
With the high interest and controversy surrounding the 2007 release of his first book, The Calm Before the Storm, Lu plans to keep writing to make sense of the Liberian experience from a historical, cultural and spiritual perspective. He also plans to continue his work with traumatized children, both in Liberia and America, as well as go deeper into the arts, from music to drama, illuminating the human condition through his knowledge of Liberia, Africa, African Americans and all people.
