Guilly (Guillaume) Koster, program maker, television presenter, documentary maker, theater producer, journalist and writer.
In 1975 he is one of the founders of the ‘Milestones’, a group of young black people in the Amsterdam Bijlmer. The Milestones made the play ‘Faya Siton’ (Hete Steen), where poet Jules Niemel wrote the script for.
As a program maker and presenter for television, he is known by the VPRO, NTR, de Humanistische omroep & MTNL.
Music has always been Guilly’s passion. He was asked by Paul Ackett to present the tuinpaviljoen at the North Sea Jazz Festival. He has done this for 20 years together with the greatest jazz musicians in the world.
Today he swings the scepter at the New Media Platform (NMP), an independent multimedia site that tries to make cultural diversity in the Netherlands visible.
