Bryan Ellis Burwell (August 4, 1955 – December 4, 2014)[1] was an American sportswriter and author. He joined the St. Louis Post Dispatch in 2002, after leaving HBO's Inside the NFL, where he worked as a sports correspondent. Burwell also worked in radio as a co-host on CBS Sports 920 in St. Louis, Missouri, on weekday afternoons and as on-air talent at 101 ESPN Radio, also in St. Louis. Burwell was featured on two ESPN programs, Jim Rome is Burning and The Sports Reporters.[1][2][3]

Burwell co-wrote and hosted a documentary on the baseball's Negro leagues titled, The Color of Change.[4] He recounted, in the documentary, the trials and tribulations of the baseball league built by racism and its ultimate demise. The documentary featured interviews with Buck O'Neil, Jackie Joyner-Kersee and Hall of Famer Ozzie Smith for the St. Louis Post Dispatch.[5]

Burwell died at the age of 59 on December 4, 2014, from melanoma, a type of cancer, leaving behind a wife, Dawnn and daughter, Victoria.[6][7] Burwell was a native of Washington D.C., but raised in Lanham, Maryland. He attended Duval High School and is a 1977 graduate of Virginia State University where he pledged Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity.[6]
