David Earle Ezra Mabengeza    
Born in Ibhayi, in Nelson Mandela Bay of South Africa, to Gerald Mabengeza, a former political prisoner of the African National Congress, and Isabel Mabengeza, a retired matron of Dora Nginza Hospital and present day AIDS counselor. "Survival under apartheid was only manageable due to my strong family structure. Their life teachings of the pursuit of excellence, respect for the sanctity of life and humility continue to guide me. Without the incredible, against all odds sacrifices they made on my account, life would be unlivable. Their tremendous vision of a better life not only for me, but all South Africans (humanity at large), is the backbone of my inspiration." Ezra picked up a camera because he was determined to create concise and everlasting histories of his peoples humanity as Africans. Ultimately his objective is to depict optimism in the face of adversity–the triumph of the human spirit!
