Debra Martin Chase

This week on DREAMLEAPERS® with Harriette Cole, we welcome Debra Martin Chase, a powerhouse in television, film, and theater. As the CEO of Martin Chase Productions and a six-time 2025 Tony Award nominee, Debra has made history as the first Black woman to have a production deal at a major studio.

Her credits span iconic films like The Princess Diaries, The Cheetah Girls, and Harriet, and she continues to break ground with bold storytelling and visionary leadership. In this inspiring conversation, Debra shares her journey as a trailblazing producer, the power of representation in media, and how she’s helping shape the next generation of creatives.

Join us as she reflects on her passion for purpose-driven projects and her mission to uplift, inspire, and change the narrative from the inside out.
