David A.R. White
Mr. White has been in the entertainment business since the age of 19, starring in television, films and producing his own films. He has received numerous award nominations and critical accolades.
David grew up in a small town outside of Dodge City, Kansas. His father was a pastor in the denomination of Evangelical Free Church. David became a Christian at the age of four. After high school, David went to Moody Bible College in Chicago for one year. There he received his first line in his first Christian Movie, Geronimo.
At 19, without knowing anyone, David moved to Hollywood and jumped right into the Entertainment business. Just six months after moving to Los Angeles, David landed a recurring role on Evening Shade with Burt Reynolds for four years. David then went on to guest appearances on such shows as Coach, Saved by the Bell, Sisters, Melrose Place, Martial Law and many others.
David's love for the entertainment industry soon led him to producing. His first production, in which he also starred, was the award winning theater production, 77 Fever. In 1999, he produced and starred in his first feature length production, The Moment After. In 2000, he co-founded the production company Signal Hill Pictures. David produced and starred in Mercy Streets opposite Eric Roberts, Stacy Keach and Cynthia Watros. This movie received a theatrical release, opened in fifty cities across the United States and played in almost every country in the world.
In 2001, David was nominated for The Movie Guide Awards' Best Actor for his work in Mercy Streets. His running mates were Mel Gibson in The Patriot, Denzel Washington in Remember the Titans and Will Smith in Bagger Vance. In addition, Mercy Streets was nominated for the Best Family Film Award.

He was instrumental in establishing the sponsor relationship between BMW and the Atlanta Committee for Olympic Games (ACOG) as well as overseeing the design and execution of the caravan management of the 1996 Olympic Torch Relay.

Sean Paul Murphy
Screenwriter Sean Paul Murphy was born Catholic and will probably die Catholic but in between he lives the life of a happy-go-lucky Evangelical who believes the culture war will not be won by laws and boycotts but rather one soul at a time. It has always been Sean's ambition to be one of the biggest Christian screenwriters in the business, and at two-hundred-and-sixty pounds, he might well have succeeded. Sean is so devoted to his goal that he is willing to eat all of the cheeseburgers and drink all of the milk shakes necessary to maintain that title.
Sean graduated from the Towson University with a degree in Mass Communications. Originally, Sean thought his Mass Communications degree would teach him the intricacies of The Mass, and therefore, the priesthood, but it simply taught him about film and television instead. Resigned to his fate, Sean went into the advertising business working as a broadcast producer. He later left the full-time work-a-day world to become a successful freelance film editor and an under-appreciated screenwriter.
His first produced screenplay 21 Eyes, an innovative mystery co-written with director Lee Bonner, was released by Vanguard Cinema in February of 2006. It has been declared a must-see and a courageous, absorbing, and unique piece of indie filmmaking. Hidden Secrets, co-written by Timothy Ratajczak, is his second produced feature length script.
Timothy Ratajczak
Timothy Ratajczak was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland, an honor he shares with Frank Zappa, Spiro Agnew and a host of other dead people.
Timothy is a graduate of Towson University with a degree in Mass Communications. With hindsight, he should probably have majored in something more relevant to the entertainment industry such as law, psychiatry or cosmetic surgery.
Like his partner Sean Murphy, Timothy was raised and educated a Catholic; however, he was excommunicated after he disagreed with the Church's views on embalming. (Timothy felt it should not be practiced exclusively on the deceased.)
"Hidden Secrets" is the first film he has co-written. In the writing team of Murphy and Ratajczak, Timothy is known as the undisciplined gag man, as he certainly lacks a sense of discipline and has been known to make people gag.
Much to the city's dismay, he still resides in Baltimore, where he spends the majority of his time writing, collecting books and teaching people how to pronounce his last name (RAT'-uh-chek).
