Today we’d like to introduce you to Vicki Johnson
Hi Vicki, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I was born and raised into the arts or medicine and currently have three active professions. One is a Senior Publicist and a BMI Songwriter with Published works, then a IATSE 600 Senior Publicist and IATSE 478 Set Medic in the Film Industry. I have developed certain skill sets in my life time that have granted me the ability to work as a seasoned professional. My tenure spans 30+ years, and I worked my way up from obtaining my education to becoming a part of the entertainment business to date. I have been a Feature Editor, a Press Writer, Co-Producer of Events, Set Medic, Personal Publicist, Co-Songwriter, Lyricist, Music Production, etc. I also represent Recording Artists from Nashville, TN and Birmingham, AL. I develop Press Kits for my artists, and I cover the shows when needed. I attribute my humble beginnings and success to a praying grandmother who was a noted Texas Poet with accolades. Having her prayers and upbringing, coupled with my faith and hard work, has mostly been a blessed journey for me. Even with the pain and struggles in life that every human being endures at some point, there is always something to keep us grateful.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
No indeed. My life has been anything but smooth. My saving grace was my grandparents who got me when I was two years old per court orders. I had a child’s paradise with them growing up, but eventually the world hit me in the face. Let’s just say, I survived and had the innate dignity to uphold my honor, goals and ambitions to succeed. I am educated and possess experience that provides me the opportunities in my careers, but more importantly, it’s the lives I touch, the memories made and the love that is given and received.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I am most proud of being a BMI Affiliate Songwriter with credits. I am also a Published Author with a book entitled “Remembrances From The Heart” under Salem Publishing. Listed on the IMDB below. You can find my works on some of these sites:

What sort of changes are you expecting over the next 5-10 years?
My industry has suffered a huge blow with Covid-19 shutdowns, strikes and slowdowns, but the crews are still some of the most skilled, creative, dedicated and resourceful work forces in the world. Look at the credits on the films alone and you will see what goes into the productions of entertainment on all levels.
The music industry has had its challenges as well; involving artists and creators in general, but the good always prevails. If you listen to a couple of my Christian songs, you can see where my heart lies personally.
I can’t honestly predict the next 5-10 years, but I will tell you, there are some brilliant and God-given talents in the world that still have many stories to tell, songs to write, artists to sing, musicians to play, and endless other gifts to share. I look forward to that aspect of it.
