Forrestall Shanna  Forrestall has been involved in storytelling since she was a little girl playing dress-up with her siblings and friends.  She’s always been captivated by unique real-life stories and lured by the power of fables and myths to teach life truths. Shanna has been a working professional in the entertainment industry since 2007.  She has produced eight (8) short films in the US that tackle social issues, and several video projects in India to support a school for disabled children and Indian eunuchs.  Shanna is now also in post-production on two additional documentary projects (on autism and mass incarceration) and also in pre-production on a few feature film projects. Shanna is also an award-winning actress with over 100 IMDb credits and published her first children's book last year.  She is also currently releasing an LP of children's bedtime stories, an LP of guided meditations, and launching an interactive art project called We Can Hear You.    She is also a songwriter, and just released her first single entitled Full Moon from the album coming out in 2021 called Fire & Water - a collaboration with Jeff Gold Music. Shanna is an avid humanitarian, volunteering after natural disasters to provide immediate relief and to fundraise and distribute long-term resources to those affected.  She also utilizes independent film-making to capture the stories of survivors and relief workers to improve response efforts for the future. She is passionate about equality and inclusion. Shanna mentors and hires young people on the autism spectrum (weekly) in her business.  She also works with nonprofits and local initiatives that support abused women, animal advocacy, and any human in need. Shanna grew up in South Louisiana but lived in Toronto for five years before returning to her home state to live until 2014.  She now splits her time between Chattanooga, TN, and Los Angeles, CA. but visits New Orleans (the city she calls home) often. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/autisminaction/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/autisminaction/support
