"Tell us your idea, let us create the masterpiece."
LaRita Shelby is known for her radio work with Lee Bailey’s Radioscope, The Tom Joyner Mornings Show and Armed Forces Radio. Some remember her starring role in the urban classic South Central, however beneath the glow of stardom was a little girl who never knew what happened to her dad. Once she found him 40 years later, she vowed to honor him, to tell her authentic story and to give voice to the voiceless. Thus, the inspiration for DAD Speak, a docu-short that allows fathers to be heard in their authentic truth, without judgment.
