Our People Make a Difference

Tia Powell is the President of Oz Publishing, Inc. Tia began her career as a make-up artist for film, video, and print, then over the years spent time as a production manager and producer. Before marrying and moving to Atlanta, she partnered with the Vice-President of the Directors Guild of Canada to form Telema Publishing, Ltd., which published the first directory for Alberta, Portfolio. After moving to Atlanta in 1990 and waiting on a "green card" before re-establishing her film career, she took over publishing Georgia’s annual film & video directory, Georgia: The Total Picture, beginning with the 1991 directory with about $400 and a typewriter working in a small apartment with one phone line.

Oz Publishing’s publications speak volumes about her dedication, persistence, business savvy, and vision. Her hard-earned success, however, is due more to her ability to inspire others to their utmost potential, her true caring for the community she works so hard to promote, and most of all, her commitment to excellence.
