Influences: MICHELLE E. ARTHURTON, PRES./C.E.OMichelle Arthurton is a woman on the move. Whether acting as President and CEO of E2 Recordings or any of its many subsidiaries, Ms. Arthurton is always fully engaged in the betterment of the music industry at large and the Reggae community in particular. Having been involved in the entertainment and legal fields for over 15 years she has worked with best of the best.A native of St. Kitts, Ms. Arthurton completed her studies at St. Kitts Business College. She began her legal career in St. Thomas while working for the Honorable Judge Brenda Hollar when her duties began to turn from administrative to legal research. Once her interest was piqued, Michelle furthered her studies with a Paralegal specialization and BA in English and Literature at the University of the Virgin Islands. Almost simultaneously she began to cultivate her passion for the entertainment industry by opening MEA Productions, a concert promotions company that also dealt with artist bookings, music publishing and copyrights. Since Ms. Arthurton had been freelancing as a fashion model on the runways of St. Thomas as well as in television and print advertising in her spare time, she had developed a keen awareness of the specialized needs of performance artists. This experience would prove to be invaluable as she began to develop her expertise and clientele.In 1994 Michelle’s background led her to a position as an on-air personality for the radio station WSTA. While there she interviewed international recording artists and further deepened her knowledge and access to industry insiders. The new millennium brought new frontiers for Ms. Arthurton with her relocation to the United States in 2000. She continued to work in the legal arena while maintaining a strong presence in the Caribbean music industry. As a member of B.E.S.L.A, the Black Entertainment and Sports Lawyers Association, she made even bigger inroads. She met the late Johnny Cochran through this affiliation and subsequently became his personal liaison when he was in St. Thomas. Ms. Arthurton’s other memberships include the National Academy of Recording Arts and Science/ The Grammys, and Reggae Ambassadors Worldwide.Today, as President and CEO of E2 Recordings Inc., Ms Arthurton oversees the daily operations of the Indie recording label and its subsidiaries: Le 2 Music Publishing, E2 Music Management and E2 Bookings. This dynamic woman is creating excellence and integrity in her corner of an industry that so often challenges both. By using her solid foundation in legal concepts and her obvious passion for Caribbean music Michelle Arthurton is paving the way for independent music entrepreneurs of tomorrow.---------------------------------------------------
