- An Evening With Berry Gordy was a must see, live-to-tape one-on-one interview with Berry Gordy conducted by award-winning journalist Gwen Ifill. Taped in November 2012 before a live audience at The Art Institute of Chicago, Ifill and Gordy began their journey in Detroit where Gordy founded Motown Records in 1959 and grew the company into the most successful African American-owned enterprise in the United States. Ifill’s interview led the audience through Gordy’s celebrated life as entrepreneur, songwriter, record producer, movie director and producer.
The program included performances by Valerie Simpson, KEM, and Janelle Monae as well as Brandon Dixon and Valisia Lekae from Motown: The Musical. Gordy’s son, Stefan Gordy, known to the music world as Redfoo, one-half of the hip-hop musical group, LMFAO, was in attendance.

TRUE GENIUS,
IN A CLASS UNIVERSE, ALL BY ITSELF.
I interviewed him at MOTOWN THE MUSICAL'S "FAMILY NIGHT" One minute.
Is there a reason, there was mention of the Temptations? Hats off to the musicians and backup singers.
A lot of things fascinated me about Berry Gordy. But I was thinking what other head of a record label was also the musician that he was. The only one I can think of was Leon Huff at Philadelphia International and they patterned themselves after Motown.,,
Where was Diana Ross? Why didn't she participate?
This was wonderfully done. A well-deserved recognition. I thoroughly enjoy seeing this...

I wish he'd talk more about what happened to Flo Ballard, was that whole episode handled right, things he could have done differently, her death, Motowns own Lady Sings the blues
Flo was a minor player is the Motown story....her story is not his story,
"An Evening with the Devil" you mean!
Ask berry gordy why he fired florence ballard with a beautiful voice.
