Tyler Perry
Tyler Perry saved $12,000 to produce his autobiographical play I Know I’ve Been Changed, but only about 30 people attended. After two more failed attempts, Perry found himself homeless, living out of his car to keep financing the play.
After three months of homelessness, the play finally gained traction, turning his life around. Today, the same street in Atlanta where he was once homeless is home to Tyler Perry Studios, a testament to his perseverance and success.
