The actor Kwame Patterson has become known for playing a certain type of character.
The season two premiere of OWN’s “David Makes Man,” airing June 22, will allow viewers to see a new side of Patterson as an actor. He says this is a welcome change. Season one of “David Makes Man'' followed a young gifted David, played by Akili McDowell, navigating life in urban South Florida. The season finale saw David receiving a recommendation from his teacher to gain entry into the elite Hurston Prep. In this season, David, now in his 30s, continues his evolution while looking back at the moments that made him a man.
Another focal point of the upcoming season will be the relationship between David and his mother, Gloria. Played by Alana Arenas, Gloria is a single mother who fiercely protects her two sons, David and J.G. She is compassionate, resourceful and yet a woman overcoming her own personal demons. The present-day Gloria cares for children in a group home while trying to reconcile with her adult son David.
