 Marcus
Thompson created and founded Dailydiva in 1996 as a Fun and Entertaining
website for women of color. The site has grown from one page to what
you see today.

Prior to Dailydiva, Marcus was a member
of the (1980's R&B group) Timex
Social Club and co-wrote the hit single Rumors.
He has been a long standing member of BMI
as a songwriter and publisher since 1986.
Retireing from the music business in the
early 1990's, Marcus turned his attention to Internet web design and Dailydiva
was born. He hopes that Dailydiva will make as much noise as his hit
Rumors did.
Marcus has also been a production designer
at Netnoir.com, located in the heart
of the SOMA district in San Francisco, California. While there, he was
a member of their celebrated production team and worked on several projects
for the site.

Marcus on his days at Netnoir ~
"I love-ded
that place baby! Working there was a joy! I learned soooo much and
I also made many friends in the process. Peace to David Ellington
and the rest of the crew, I love you guys. As you said David, I've
gone on to do my own thang...."
