Native author and model to give museum program

The Union County Heritage Museum will host a program Friday by Mississippi-born author and fashion model Terrance Dye.

The event is closed to the public but will be available on Facebook Live at 6 p.m.

Dye will speak briefly and his books will be available later at the museum.

Dye is a 37-year-old native of Mississippi. He is a 2000 graduate of Booneville High School, and after graduation studied in the field of Fashion Marketing.

In 2003, he was a reporter for Delta Epsilon Chi Association. His first two self-published books, “Royalty” and “Chronicles of Love” gave him local and national recognition from radio, newspapers, and news.

An appearance on the Dr. Bobby Jones Gospel on BET and the Impact Network gave Dye national exposures to over 20 million viewers.

He has done all of his own marketing and promotion. Dye has won numerous awards for his writing talents including “International Who’s Who in poetry,” “Editor’s Choice Award,” and “Shakespeare Trophy of Excellence.” Dye’s work has also been published in several anthologies, which landed him the Noble House Label Pen.

“’My Conversations with God’ is writing and poems collectively 13 years in the making of my spiritual journey, of how God revealed my gift of words to express to the world a true testimony of his love and mercy,” Dye said of his latest book. He lives in the Nashville area.
