Retired award-winning broadcaster, Huel Perkins, brought news to Metro Detroit residents for 32 years. During his career, he traveled the country with Nelson Mandela, followed Pope John Paul on his visit across the U.S., and interviewed Civil Rights icons, politicians, and business leaders. Perkins was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Society of Professional Journalists and has won three Emmy awards from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. 

Robin Schwartz is a 17-time Emmy award-winning storyteller dedicated to uncovering, producing, and promoting the untold stories that touch our lives. She is the founder and CEO of Robin Schwartz PR. Robin started the firm after 23 years as a TV news anchor/reporter, including nearly 17 years at WJBK-TV (Fox 2 News) in Detroit. 

Both Huel and Robin have been champions of Lighthouse for years - Huel's wife, Priscilla, was a former staff member at Lighthouse, raising crucial funds to support the mission, and Robin works hand in hand with the team to share Lighthouse's stories more broadly.

Together, Huel Perkins and Robin Schwartz are two iconic figures in the Detroit landscape, each leaving a lasting impact on the community through their dedication to journalism and storytelling. We are grateful for Huel and Robin's continued support and advocacy for Lighthouse and the individuals we serve!
