It is Black Her-story on The Outlet with Kei-Touch! Kei-Touch was LIVE in studio Sylvia Traymore Morrison! She was just on the Sherri Shepherd Show in February and was honored for Black History Month. Kei-Touch celebrated her as the 1ST Black Woman Impressionist AND the 1ST Black Woman Writer for SNL! They talked about a few of her historical moments and her play The Return of Jackie Moms Mabley.

The Legendary and EXTRAordinary Sylvia Traymore Morrison is truly American History in the making! Born and raised in Washington D.C., as a child she loved to sing. She realized she could also impersonate and that would help set her apart from other singers, that it did.

Her life had an amazing trajectory from the Miss Black America Contest to performing USO tours overseas for our troops, to comedic legend Redd Foxx becoming her first manager, then being asked to asked to host a Roast of the Champ, for greatest heavyweight boxer, Muhammad Ali at the legendary Apollo Theater!

Sylvia was offered a position as an associate-writer for, Saturday Night Live; she also toured and opened for the late Whitney Houston in multiple cities. Appropriately, Sylvia became an author and released her first book, based on her true life story, entitled "Almost There, Almost...The Many Faces of Sylvia Traymore Morrison." This can be purchased on Amazon and other places.
