David L. Wadley is an award-winning author, filmmaker, entrepreneur, and accredited investor whose work explores the intersection of artificial intelligence, finance, government, politics, and social change through commercially driven storytelling. Drawing upon decades of experience in Hollywood, public service, and financial markets, Wadley creates stories that combine cinematic suspense, timely themes, and contemporary Black protagonists.
Wadley is the creator of The AI Revolution: African American Trilogy, an adaptation-ready book series consisting of The AI Revolution Will Not Be Televised, Passport Bro, and Bulls, Bears and Bad Bitches. The trilogy has earned consecutive recognition in the Readers’ Favorite International Book Award Contest, with The AI Revolution Will Not Be Televised named a 2025 Readers’ Favorite Finalist — Fiction: Urban and Bulls, Bears and Bad Bitches winning the 2026 Readers’ Favorite International Book Award Bronze Medal — Fiction: Urban. Wadley earned Readers’ Favorite awards in the same category in back-to-back years with two different books—an achievement Readers’ Favorite described as “exceedingly rare.”
The AI Revolution Will Not Be Televised also received the 2025 Literary Titan Gold Book Award on April 4, 2025—exactly 57 years after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
That date holds particular significance to Wadley’s work, which carries themes of Black economic empowerment, ownership, investing, and wealth creation into the age of artificial intelligence, echoing the economic-justice mission that defined the final chapter of Dr. King’s work. At the time of his assassination, Dr. King was organizing the Poor People’s Campaign, a national movement intended to bring poor Americans to Washington, D.C., to demand greater economic opportunity, jobs, fair wages, housing, and economic security.
Together, these honors—spanning two books and consecutive Readers’ Favorite award years—underscore the growing recognition of The AI Revolution: African American Trilogy as contemporary Black storytelling that combines technology, financial power, political consequence, and cinematic potential.
