Wendell Gilliard has made his home and lived his entire life in Charleston. Born July 1, 1954, the son of the late William and Sinclair Gilliard, Rep. Gilliard lives at 1237 Marvin Avenue in Charleston. He has three children, April Sinclair, Wendell G., and Keith Demon, who attended local public schools. He knows our neighborhoods, our traditions, our values and our needs because he is one of us.
Being raised on the East side at 69 Harris Street is something that Representative Wendell Gilliard will always treasure. It was there that he was taught how to love, care, and respect others and to never forget from whence he came. His parents taught Wendell to always reach for higher goals in life, not just for himself, but to serve and help others as he passed along the way. On the East side, they didn't tell each other "I have mine, now you go get yours!" It was expressed that "Here is some of mine, now let me show you how to share!"
For Wendell Gilliard, that commitment to serve his community motivated him to enter the arena of public service. He served his community as a member of the Charleston City Council for eleven years.
In 2008, Wendell Gilliard took that commitment of community service to the next level and was elected to represent the people of Charleston in District 111, of the South Carolina House of Representatives.
