Shirah Dedman dropped out of high school at the age of 15-years-old and became a licensed attorney by 23. She found herself consistently un/under-employed despite her advanced education. But through perseverance, she built a film and legal career that included positions at William Morris Agency, DirecTV and Paramount Pictures. But after her last layoff, she decided it was time to pursue her true passion: unveiling stories at the intersection of economics, race and the environment. Shirah is an Associate of the Investigative Reporting Program at UC Berkeley, and formerly an Associate of the Equal Justice Initiative. In March 2019, KPFA Radio listener-members elected her to the Local Station Board. To check out some of her work click HERE
