Biographical / Historical

Elbert "Big Man" Howard was born on January 5, 1938 in Chattanooga, Tennessee. In 1954 Howard joined the Air Force and was a firefighter on a crash-rescue team at an airbase near Verdun, France. After leaving the Air Force in 1960 Howard became a student at Merritt College in Oakland, California. In 1966 he was one of the six founding members of the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, along with Reggie Forte, Sherman Forte, Bobby Hutton, Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale. At the time he was a student at Merritt College in Oakland. He served as the editor of the Black Panther newspaper, the Deputy Minister of Information and the central strategist for community programs. He also wrote articles for the Black Panther Party newspaper under the moniker 'Brother Dynamite'. He traveled around the United States helping to establish BPP chapters and to Europe and Japan as a spokesperson for the BPP. In 1974 Howard left the BPP and worked in retail in Virginia and Tennessee. He also worked with several organizations in Memphis focused on improving education and health care. Howard moved to Sonoma County and in 2007 married Carole Hyams, who had worked at the Berkeley Free Clinic as a volunteer from 1969-1970 and was also a community worker for the BPP. Hyams first met Big Man in early 1969. Howard was involved with a number of community organizations focused on police brutality, peace, and social justice, including Police Accountability Clinic & Helpline of Sonoma County. He also co-founded KWTF a community radio station, was a radio dj promoting jazz and blues, and was a journalist. Elbert "Big Man" Howard died July 23, 2018 in Santa Rosa, California.
