Leslie Antonoff is a DOER. Life has taught her the hurdles you encounter shouldn’t limit the size of your dreams. Her visions of being a writer and a household name never waned no matter the hardships she faced. Not poverty or becoming a mother at 23. In choosing to be unafraid and share her story vulnerably, she has become a powerful force in every industry she pursues. For the last twelve years, Antonoff has thrived as a storyteller. In entertainment, on screen and behind the camera; beginning in 2016 with her cable series Butter + BROWN, selling the animated series, The Adventures of DeeDee, CeCe, and Lil E to HBO Max, developing a pilot with HGTV and appearing on the digital series, TraDISHional with Food Network. And the list doesn’t end there. As a cultural tastemaker she had a hit web series, Let LESLIE Tell It and Let LESLIE Tell It REMIXED with Issa Rae’s company HOORAE media. She’s also built her brand, The Hautemommie, by sharing her life as a way to radically remind people, especially Black women, that they have permission to live a magnificent life. Along with her professional success, Leslie takes extreme pride in her role as Board President for the civic organization, Loud Community. Serving with joy, to ensure BIPOC women experience a life where collective progress, self-discovery, and social connection lead the way. Through every move she makes she aims to make her husband and three daughters proud.
