Sonia Moodie was the CEO of Don One Recording Sounds in Brooklyn. For over 30 years, the Moodies have been a fixture in the music business: Sonia started at age 16, under the tutelage of her brother-in-law, Sir Clement "Coxsone" Dodd at his Downbeat Studio, in Kingston, Jamaica; while Donald worked at Stranger Cole's Label. After several years, they migrated to the United States and worked at Studio One Records, which was owned by Sonia's sister, Norma Dodd. A few years later, they started "Coxsone Music City" which was later destroyed by fire. They then purchased a building of their own on Albemarle Avenue, Brooklyn, New York, which now house's the Don One studio. The business has rapidly developed into a mastering, recording, producing, dub plate and distribution studio where Beenie Man, Buju Banton, Wycleff Jean, the late Dennis Brown, Sizzla, Luciano and a host of other reggae artists frequently record.
