(BALTIMORE – September17, 2023) – Inquiring minds want to know, just who is Doni Glover?

Born on June 27, 1965, in Baltimore’s Provident Hospital to Lillie and Donald Edward Glover, Donald Morton “Doni” Glover is the CEO of DMGlobal – a multimedia marketing and public relations firm he founded in 2002 that services businesses, politicians, lawyers, nonprofits, corporations, municipalities, artists, and authors. He has covered news locally and nationally, including over 50 visits to the White House, and on-the-ground coverage in Jordan (2002) as US troops were landing to invade Iraq, the Ethiopian elections (2006), Tanzania, Jamaica, and Canada. He has been featured on NBC’s WBAL TV-11, CNN, TV One, Fox News, Maryland Public Television, Spanish TV, WEAA, WYPR, Radio 103.9 New York, and in McClatchy Newspapers, the Final Call, the Afro-American Newspaper, the Washington Post, the Baltimore Sun, the Baltimore Brew, the Baltimore Business Journal, the Northwest Voice Newspaper, and the Baltimore Banner.

The 29-year veteran journalist is also the publisher of their flagship established in 2002, BMORENews.com, and BlackUSA.News, and he’s the host and producer of the Emmy-nominated weekday morning news platform – Doni Glover Show.

Further, he is the News Director for STEMCityUSA.com, Dr. Tyrone Taborn’s visionary contribution to ensure that Black and brown people have a safe place in the Metaverse.

He launched DMGlobal after his stint concluded at Empower Baltimore Management Corporation (EBMC), the $100 million dollar federally-funded Empowerment Zone charged with helping transform parts of East and West Baltimore. There, he served for three years as a public information specialist. Prior to that, Glover was Editor-in-chief of the Sandtown-Winchester VIEWPOINT Newspaper, a community-oriented publication that reached the 72 square blocks of this Historic West Baltimore community, from 1994 to 2000.

A Ronald E. McNair Honors graduate from Coppin State University with a Bachelor’s degree in English: Media Arts: Broadcast Production and Technology, Glover actually began his academic career at Morehouse College. At present, he is working to complete his Master’s in Journalism at the National Treasure, Morgan State University. His ultimate academic goal is to obtain his Ph.D.

For the past two decades, the award-winning journalist’s star in the world of media has certainly risen. With over 20 years of news talk hosting under his belt at Radio One Baltimore’s WOLB 1010 AM, Glover has since taken his Doni Glover Show to the web Monday thru Friday at 9 am EST via YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook. Speaking of which, Glover has clearly demonstrated how social media can propel one’s reach to a modest 211,000 followers.

In any event, Glover has used his platforms, including his flagship, www.bmorenews.com, to highlight and bring attention to the developments in the Black community as they unfold. While BMORENews’ primary news beat is Baltimore City, it also covers major Black enclaves, including northwest Baltimore County, Howard County, Prince George’s County, the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and Washington, D.C. Further, Glover has covered news across the country, including three dozen visits to the White House, as well as on-the-ground news coverage from Ethiopia, Tanzania, Jordan, Jamaica, and Canada.

BMORENews’ agenda has always been the same: Black business, public education, returning citizens’ services, affordable housing, and universal access to healthcare. With that in mind, almost every major politician in the state has been featured on BMORENews, which boasts a YouTube library of over 6,600 original clips.

Since the onset of BMORENews, Glover has hosted business networking events across the region. What started off as the Harambee Dinner Club eventually morphed into the Joe Manns Black Wall Street Awards, designed to celebrate Black entrepreneurs and professionals as well as the people who support them regardless of race. To date, over 2,500 individuals have been recognized in 10 US cities: New York, Baltimore, Washington D.C., Richmond, Atlanta, New Orleans, Montgomery, Las Vegas, Tulsa, and Detroit. Furthermore, Glover has hosted two Annual National Black Wall Street Summits (2018 & 2019).

It should also be noted that Glover has been active in Maryland politics since 1998. Further, he has advised a number of winning political candidates on the local, state, and federal levels.

The author of “Unapologetically Black: Doni Glover Autobiography” (2015), Glover published his second book, ”I Am Black Wall Street”, in June 2021. This new book covers the history behind Tulsa’s Black Wall Street.

Further, Glover launched BlackUSA.News on December 1, 2020, and is now broadcasting 7 days a week on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube. The network features a number of hosts from around the country, including Doug Blacksher, Dr. Ashley Coleman, Dave Loveless, Quida Chancey, Dr. Ashley Coleman, Tasemere Gathers, Yolanda Pulley, Donna Tabron, Jason Rodriguez, and Ericka Alston Buck.  

“I would say my biggest passion is helping the plight of America’s Black-owned businesses,” he said. “Nationally, we have approximately $1.6 trillion in annual disposable income. To me, that says that regardless of what political party is in power, we have enough resources to fix any problems we might have. And that’s exactly why telling the world about our Black Wall Street history nationally is so important to me. If our ancestors were able to survive lynching, murder, rape, and terror and still build successful Black business communities, then we literally have no excuse today – no matter what we think. Otherwise, we are like beggars sitting on bags of gold!”

You can catch Glover on Thursdays at midnight on “Hiphop Chronicles” with Mike Nyce on Morgan State’s WEAA 88.9 FM. Each week, he gives the BMORENews Report on developments in the community, including updates on City Hall and Annapolis. Glover first appeared on WEAA in 1980 at the age of 15 with community leader Charlie Dugger. He has also hosted his own show for a time there called ‘One Mic’.

Glover said he strives to live by his father’s motto: “With a closed hand, nothing gets in and nothing gets out. With an open hand, there are endless possibilities. The moral of the story is ‘Help somebody’!”

On that note, Glover is active in his community and works with a number of organizations each year that are making a difference, including James Mosher Baseball, Black Professional Men, the Men’s Center of East Baltimore, the Bea Gaddy Center, UMAR Boxing, Choo Smith Youth Empowerment, Gregory Branch’s Annual Legends Tournament at the Dome, the Salvation Army of Central Maryland (Board member), and the Annual Historic Pennsylvania Avenue Parade.

Glover’s father was Donald Edward Glover. His mother was Lillie Juanita James Glover. The family-owned Glover’s Funeral Home in the 60s, 70s, and 80s, first at Patterson Park and Lanvale, then 712-714 E. North Avenue, and lastly at 802 Madison Avenue up unto the mid-80s. It was there that the entrepreneurial bug was birthed in him. While his parents are both deceased, Glover is the very proud father of one son, Asaan, and one daughter, N’yinde’ Amaari. He is also a grandfather to Amari (grandson), Satori (granddaughter), and the latest – Avani (granddaughter). And his beloved German Shepherd is named Pharaoh.
