About Goliath Jones
Goliath Jones is a lecture agency for the modern times. We represent poets, writers, journalists and scientists with the courage to speak truth to power. In a world overcome with artificial intelligence we trade in AUTHENTIC intelligence. Words have meaning and stories are essential to our understanding of the world. We’re here for the stories!
Trinity Ray
Trinity has been booking speakers for thirty years. He was the Chair of the Lecture Committee at The University of Iowa where he received his degree. He also served eight years in the US Army Reserves as a photojournalist and worked for ten years with a large lecture bureau in Boston. Later he established The Tuesday Agency which had a successful fifteen-year run, booking more than 5,000 events from the Sydney Opera House to a barn in rural Wisconsin. Goliath Jones is his latest project.
He is a father and a husband and a sucker for a good dad joke.
Kevin Mills
Kevin has been involved with programming most of his life and has been booking speakers for fifteen years.. As a young msn he rustled horses on the dusty plains of Nebraska, sold books in dusty old bookstores, and taught English in dusty Las Vegas. He attended The University of Iowa where he was a talent buyer for the student run concerts committee – all while earning a degree in English Education. With a lifelong passion for music and culture he has been enriched by living in the many artistic communities of Los Angeles, Nashville, and Chicago.
He now calls Iowa City his home and is the father of two amazing humans. He plays a Fender Telecaster and makes some pretty decent buttermilk biscuits.
Baxter
Baxter is our office dog. He is a mini-goldendoodle and a very good boy. He likes honey nut Cheerios and belly rubs. He will take your toy and insist on being chased. This is his favorite game.
