Family patriarchs will take center stage at the 16th  Annual Honoring Unsung Fathers (H.U.F) Awards and Scholarship Brunch on Sunday, June 17, at the Long Beach Hilton Hotel.

 

Sponsored by the Mablean Ephriam Foundation, the event recognizes Southern California fathers who play a vital role in all aspects of their children’s upbringing.

 

Ephriam, a former Los Angeles prosecuting attorney, is well known for leading the popular TV programs “Divorce Court” and “Justice with Judge Mablean.” In March, she and her daughter, Taj Paxton, made history by becoming the first African American mother/daughter to earn dual Daytime Emmy nominations.
