DB Morgan is a screenwriter, author and award winning director born and bred in Colchester, Essex, UK. An autistic mental health survivor, vocal advocate for #ownvoices works and proud family ambassador for www.sickchildrenstrust.org.

As a mental health survivor, anxiety sufferer and general all-round underdog, DB Morgan is proud to welcome under-represented and minority groups into all of his filmmaking exploits. Having trialled his 'youth involvement project' during the shoot of his 2010 (MTV competition winning) short film, "Subject 3", he quickly learned that everybody has something to offer in a creative environment and crew members on the autism/Asperger's spectrum especially came away empowered and motivated from their experiences on set. #underdogcrew
