Here is what is said about Andrea on the Deep Stealth Website… “Andrea James has spent her career crafting communication that makes a difference, and now she’s applying her expertise in Hollywood. After graduating with a Master’s Degree in English from University of Chicago, she wrote ads for ten years at top Chicago agencies. Her ads for blue-chip clients premiered on the Super Bowl and other major television events and were frequently among audience favorites. She has also created free websites for consumers considered among the best in their categories. Having established a loyal following on the internet, Andrea branched out to film and television with her business partner Calpernia Addams. In 2003, they created Deep Stealth Productions, with the goal to counter the dismal depiction of transgendered people in the media with more accurate and positive portrayals. Andrea produced Deep Stealth’s sold-out V-Day LA 2004 benefit production of “The Vagina Monologues,” under the direct guidance of playwright Eve Ensler and mentor Jane Fonda. The event was featured in the documentary Beautiful Daughters. Andrea has made numerous film and television appearances, including The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch, the sitcom Two and a Half Men, The Insider with Pat O’Brien, and the documentary Middle Sexes. Andrea stars in the popular instructional video Finding Your Female Voice, and her work as a voice coach for trans women led to consulting with star Felicity Huffman for the feature film Transamerica. Andrea consulted on the script with Felicity and appears in the opening scene of that film as the voice coach. Andrea directed the 2007 short “Casting Pearls” and and the 2009 film Transproofed.” More information and links can be found on Andrea’s Page on www.prismdirection.com .
