Join me for this inspiring conversation with Deborah Jane Burke, a dynamic Hollywood Film & TV writer and producer. Fun fact: as a student at Stanford, Deborah wrote and produced a Hip Hopera that starred Issa Rae as a student! Since then, she has worked with networks including FOX, TBS, BET, PBS and so much more. Deborah's latest project is a bit strange shall we say...stranger than fiction but inspired by real life! Deborah takes us on an audio journey with her current project --the award-winning independent film Strange Fruit: The Hip-hopera. Find out how a recurring nightmare turned into an artistic venture and tells a tale of contemporary and historic truth that we can all learn from. It's not just a film; it's a modern approach to storytelling in which we tell our own stories to ignite critical conversations about the construct of race in our country, all while doing so to the musical beats and lyrics of hip hop. Broadway here we come! A child of Guyanese immigrants who were one of the only Black families in suburban Orange County, Cali; Ya’ll the neighbors couldn’t handle it and moved! Their loss, and our gain, for the breathtaking resilience and brilliance that is Deborah Jane Burke of House of Deborah Jane Studios.

Henson set it off at the end of last year with her honest and authentic breakdown of how she continues to be undervalued and underpaid in Hollywood; even as an A-list actress in the prime of her career.
