About this listen

Papa the Popular Printer is an extraordinary nonfiction story about protagonist James Henry Forniss. He amazingly evolves from a young man as a shoe shiner to a successful Professional Printer.

Akin to today's "IT" Information Technologist, his ingenious transformation was rare for a "colored man"—especially in the south during a post slavery 20th Century era.

This true story depicts challenges "colored" people faced to overcome racial barriers to advance in America in the early 1900"s. Children will learn about the "Power of One"! How one determined youth with strong faith, confidence and courage to "never give up" transformed his life and many others. JH became a Community Activist whose influence dramatically enhanced the development of his hometown, Uniontown, AL.
