Felicia Harden
Executive Producer
Detroit born New York made, Felicia Harden makes films that inspire her as a black woman. Trained as an Occupational Therapist at the prestigious Howard University many moons ago, Felicia volunteered as an actor for directors taking a master level directing for film class with the esteemed Ethiopian Filmmaker Haile Germia. Feeling like she won the lottery for so many reasons, she started to pursue a career as an actress in DC. Discontented with options behind and in front of the camera, she formed a production company with two of her best friends and she started to produce their work. In 2014 she was diagnosed with breast cancer, with a family now, she decided to go to film school and occupy her time that might be consumed with her diagnosis learning how to make films. At City College, is where her focus became even more clear. Felicia has produced several films since school, but she is most proud of her thesis film, January 30th, that she uses as an opener to talk to black women about Health.
Felicia has currently shifted her focus to producing HAPI. Falling in love with Egypt and learning about the significance of the female voice in the development of civilization made saying yes to the project a no-brainer.
