Introducing: The Life of David Rhoiney
A sneak peek behind the scenes of a major new Infinite Media film & book project chronicling the extraordinary journey of Dr. David Rhoiney (@FiSurgi).
___
David Rhoiney was born at the bottom.
As an impoverished African American child, he survived seemingly unbearable hardships, from street violence to homelessness.
Yet, despite the bleakest prospects, his adult years have been defined by a series of astonishing successes.
This desperate yet brilliant boy became a complex, ambitious man who refused to let himself be beaten by the dire circumstances he found himself in.
Now a qualified robotic surgeon, David has also excelled as a Division I athlete in basketball and track, a U.S. Navy cryptologist, a financial educator, a public speaker, and a web designer.
This is a story of ambition, ruthlessness, sacrifice, hubris, intelligence, stubbornness, loss, and, ultimately, hope.
This is the story of how David Rhoiney reached the top.

For the full story of this multimedia project and to sign up for updates and behind-the-scenes previews, just follow the link to our Substack in the thread.
In the meantime, before filming kicks off in 2024, we’re excited to present an exclusive pre-production trailer produced by the talented filmmaker @ZacharyTannar, who joined David's biographer @Ed_Wi11iam earlier this year to visit David at his home in Virginia.
This teaser isn’t a trailer for the film but an early opportunity to become acquainted with David and his story—in his words, in his voice—so you can see for yourself the depth and drama of the story to come.
Enjoy...👇👇

It’s deeply humbling to be interviewed by @statnews by Pulitzer Prize Journalist Usha Lee McFarling! She and her staff worked so diligently to tell the story of our youth fighting out of Chicago’s Southside. Big thanks to @UChiPritzker @UChicagoEM @docskitchen @medceep @SNMA – at Chicago, IL
I recently travelled to Chicago to meet @DocOffTheBlock who now works as an ER doc in the trauma center he fought to bring to his neighborhood. His lifesaving work is inspiring, but it’s taking a huge toll. statnews.com/2023/03/22/abdu…

Abdullah Hasan Pratt, MD @DocOffTheBlock of @UChicagoEM, founded a group to teach inner-city youth conflict management skills to help prevent violence.
"It's not gang violence... It's interpersonal, not to be able to conflict-resolve," he said.
