A bigger chunk of this month has been all about 'Black Panther,' and for those who love watching movies this was Marvel’s idea to showcase “blackness.” One of the main players taking credit for the film is director and screenwriter Ryan Coogler. Coogler is the one directing the film, the one who rose to fame after he produced a feature film, 'Fruitvale Station' in 2013. The film helped him to win an award at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival.

He also helped direct 'Creed', and 'Creed2.' but he admits that he hasn’t won these awards alone. He has his wife, Zinzi Evans’s heart as a lifetime award though not much is known about her at this time. When 'Black Panther' premiered, Coogler gave a shout out to his beautiful wife, thanking her for all her hard work.

Oddly enough both were born and raised in Oakland, California. If Evans would have starred in 'Black Panther,' she could have perhaps defeated the rest of the Wakandas with her athletic prowess. Zinzi Evans was a high school letter woman who won seven league championships and also served as the team captain of the high school cross-country team for three years in a row.

Evans also left high school with a record of being one of the top cross-country runners under the Fresno Bulldogs While at the University of California, Fresno, she was a scholar-athlete and graduated from the university in the early 2000s. Her father, Zishan and her mother Maria raised six children, one son and five daughters. Zinzi loves to play volleyball, dance and listen to music and her favorite sport is cross-country, as you can already tell.
