Tanya R. Liverman
Tanya R. Liverman, CEO of Native Productions is no stranger to media, arts, entertainment, and broadcasting. She is a self- published author with four books, Journey to Legacy, Memoirs of an Educarer, Reflections from the Soul and In The Mirror: A Woman's Saga. Her books have given her opportunities to be keynote speaker for many events like Crittenden Middle School, What About The Books Scholarship at Tidewater Community College, EdYouCarers breakfast, and a travelling speaker with Divine Concept Group’s Authors & Writers Workshops. Moreover, Tanya lectures to schools and communities, bringing awareness to her Native American heritage. She is not only an author, but Tanya also helps guides and publishes other independent authors.
From the launch of her first book, she began her own on-line broadcasting in 2011 of The Journey to Legacy Show. Her platform weekly inspired, encouraged, and related to her listeners with special guests, such as Tammy Washington, Michelle Booker, Mykel Coleman, Euclid Gray, Quincy Carr, and many more whose stories impacted so many people. Tanya‘s show moved up to a featured broadcast on the network. After three years on the air, she retired The Journey to Legacy Show in 2014 to concentrate on her work in Native Productions book publishing, designing, web sites, and music management.
Stage production is where Tanya gained a plethora of experience in entertainment. Her company co-hosted a stage play at The Ferguson Center for One Red Nail Productions (2012), Maria: One Prayer Away. In December 2012, Tanya returned to The Ferguson Center and her company hosted and produced Euclid Gray’s The Transformation of Who I Am. Following those productions, from 2013-2014, Tanya produced Joel Roman’s travelling show From Hollywood to Holiness – It Ain’t Easy Being Godly. Tanya branded the show and put an entire production team together, including musical artists from her management company. They travelled locally and up the east coast. With all the work behind her belt, she gained an opportunity in 2014 and produced Quincy Carr’s LIVE show, The Quality Comedy Show with Quincy Carr, for television submission for an entire season.
In 2012, Tanya began working with her first artists C1 and Mara Suggs. From there, she has worked with and consulted with numerous recording artists, including currently managing rising indie artist, Pellé Price. To further her knowledge in the industry, she became a student of Excellence in Christian Music Academy (ECMA) in 2014, where she is a two-time alumna. In addition, she was on the production team and co-hosted the 2015 ECMA Awards gala. She has co-hosted on other broadcasts, such as Let’s Face It, and is the co-host of Stellar Award nominated Gospel Central Radio Show.

She is an ordained minister and a member of Empowered Believers Christian Learning Center (EBCLC), in Hampton, Virginia where she serves faithfully on the praise team, shares her gift in praise dance, and serves on the elder board.

“Children are our future. We teach them today; what will they do tomorrow?”
“A teacher will be frustrated if she is only motivated to teach what she has learned. Yet, if she is motivated because of the students, then she will learn from them how to teach.”
“An educator will teach the students. An Educarer will reach the students.”
“We must experience certain things in life, even in our childhood, so we can later look back and value the journey.”
“My best testimonies are from the times I thought I couldn't survive.”
“It's not what you go through that makes you strong: it is how you handle the situation that gives you strength.”
“Although any help is genuinely welcomed, it is more important to be a supportive, proactive parent than it is to be a supportive parent after academic failure and negative behaviors occur.”
“Respect is not the equivalent to 'liking' a student or teacher; it is the ability to have a high regard for the role of another. In order to receive respect, we should demonstrate it first...”
“Don’t forget to collect the memories on your journey. Remember, if you only focus on your destination, you will miss out on the benefits of the journey.”
