Ray Upchurch
Ray Upchurch was born in Denver Colorado and moved to northern California at the age of 11. He has a wealth of life experiences and titles including custodial single Father, Christian, Film Maker and Mortgage Broker.
The eldest of 4 children, Upchurch was raised by his mother Gloria and 'Step-up' father Richard Lee. Upchurch did not meet his biological father a professor of Sociology at Dartmouth University until the age of 41. In 2002 he decided to visit him at his place of employment and upon meeting him he breathed a sigh of relief for his life the puzzle he felt was finally complete. Upchurch said at this point his 'Daddy Hunger' was released.
After realizing this sense of completion from coming full circle with his father, Upchurch vowed to make it his mission to help others in their journey to seek resolution and understanding regarding their own daddy issues. The completion of this project has enabled Upchurch to share his vision and solutions regarding the significance of fathers and fatherhood.
Upchurch was a successful mortgage broker for over 20 years but he recently decided to follow his passion and created the critically acclaimed and controversial Award Winning Documentary 'Daddy Hunger'. Through this documentary Upchurch has experienced redemption, hope and love and hopes to continue to help others to improve their lives.
