The People's EMCEE
Interview
The Savvy Event Guru: How did you begin this journey of Emceeing events?
Dr. Renee': I began emceeing events back as a Teenager at the YMCA and it grew from there. I began hosting school events through-out high school; Spanish Heritage Month programs, Black History Month programs, etc. But I began my professional career of Emceeing Events over 30 years ago back when I Hosted an event for Berry Fletcher and Roger Gore at the "Classics" in Camp Springs, MD.
The Savvy Event Guru: What were some of the events you emceed?
Dr. Renee': I will go as far back as The 9th Street Stage of Historic River Fest; back with One of the Greatest Designers, the "late" Bill Washington, Designer Pat Smith Swimwear and Make-up by Derrick Rutledge. I will go as recent as the "Finally Me 4 Real" Women's Conference with Dr. Jazz that I emceed on October 11-13, 2019. There are hundreds of other events, which I am grateful for each and everyone of them.
The Savvy Event Guru: How did you get the name "The People's Emcee"?
Dr. Renee': People have been very good to me and received me well for the most part. I have been blessed to receive many compliments, when it comes to stage etiquette and stage presence. I have been pegged many beautiful names such as "DMV Finest MC", "The Mouth Piece", "Stage Magic", "Shinning Star", "Star", "Starlynn" (a name given to me by my "late" Dad, Leith Fraser)...Thats a long funny story.(smiles) But one day while I was campaigning with my friend, Debra Carter, for the Former County Executive of Prince George's County Mr. Rushern Baker, Baker's Wife, former 1st Lady, Mrs. Christa Baker said to me "You are the People's Emcee"! She said this after observing me Sing and motivate the people to get out in vote in each area that we were campaigning in and the name JUST STUCK!!
April 27, 2019 "A Night To Remember" Fundraiser Gala & Fashion Show to benefit Kennedy Krieger Institute by Stephanie White Events
The Savvy Event Guru: Wow that is an amazing story on how you got your name "The People's Emcee!...(smiles)
The Savvy Event Guru: Who would you say has Mentored you over the years?
Dr. Renee': I have always been an advocate of self help and positive attitude books, but some of my long-time physical Mentors include my amazing parents, Leith (RIP) & Charlotte Fraser, Charles Overton Scott, Darnell & Traci Self, George & Emma Fraser, Margo McKay, and Dr. H L Barner, however I am always in council with God!
The Savvy Event Guru: So what Inspires You to continue to do what you do?

The Savvy Event Guru: So what Inspires You to continue to do what you do?
Dr. Renee': Making people happy makes me happy. How I make people feel when I am on stage also makes me happy. The gift God has given me to inspire, empower, motivate and connect others brings joy to my heart and that's pretty much what inspires me to continue to do what I do!
The Savvy Event Guru: Where does your Motivation come from? What Motivates you?
Dr. Renee': My motivation comes from the fact that God has given me a chance to do something to serve others but my personal motivation is my extraordinary, amazing, talented and kind son Chase Joseph!
Dr. Renee': My other motivation is God (or whatever Higher power you believe in) has placed us all on this earth to POUR into others; whether it spiritually, physically or financially. #ButGOD We all have been charged to be ourselves and to do the best that we can do for others and to intercede on behalf of others when possible and when necessary. I am the oldest of 3 sisters and I had to be accountable for my sisters; that charge parlayed into my adult life. I find myself even helping women who don't appear to like me because its the right thing to do. We are all growing and each decade we evolve into different women.
