01/08/10 Congrats to Deborah Ayorinde!  The lovely model and Howard University grad was on TBS’  “Meet The Browns” on Wednesday night. She’s now living in Atlanta and has signed up with one of the city’s top talent agencies (Atlanta Models & Talent). She says working with Tyler Perry Studios was an awesome experience: “It was pretty nerve-racking to be working with people that I had grown up watching on television (i.e. Terri Vaughn, Alfonso Ribeiro, etc.) but everyone was so kind and helpful and I learned a lot. Hopefully it won’t be the last time I get to work with them. The episode I am in has aired on television but people can watch it on TBS.com (I’m not exactly sure when it will show up but I know you can watch full episodes of Meet the Browns on TBS’s website). For updates on what I’m up to and my future projects, people can follow me on Twitter (yes, I gave in lol) at Twitter.com/DAyorinde.”

[I took this photo of Deborah at an Open Studio shoot. My next Open Studio will be on Saturday 01/16/09. It’s a great deal if you need a head shot for a web page or comp card or acting CV or an “About The Author” blurb, etc. ]
