Nicole Avant is an American producer, author, philanthropist, and former diplomat who served as the United States Ambassador to the Bahamas from 2009 to 2011 - the first Black woman and youngest person to hold that position. The daughter of music mogul Clarence Avant ("The Black Godfather") and philanthropist Jacqueline Avant, she has produced critically acclaimed projects including the 2019 Netflix documentary on her father The Black Godfather and The Six Triple Eight (2024), a World War II film directed by Tyler Perry.  Following the tragic murder of her mother in December 2021, Nicole channeled her grief into her USA Today bestselling memoir Think You'll Be Happy: Moving Through Grief with Grit, Grace, and Gratitude (2023), becoming a powerful voice on resilience, mental wellness, faith, and the healing power of music.
