Darnell Lamont Walker (He/Him)
Death Doula & Emmy-Nominated Writer
Darnell Lamont Walker is a Death Doula and Emmy-Nominated Writer whose work lives at the intersection of creativity, care, and transition. Sometimes that looks like helping families hold love and memory at the end of life. Sometimes it means creating stories for kids, writing for shows like Karma’s World, Work It Out Wombats!, and Blue’s Clues & You, and helping young people make sense of big feelings in gentle, joyful ways. Sometimes it looks like gathering strangers into rooms where grief, joy, art, and conversation can coexist. Always, it’s about making room for people to feel seen and supported. He is the author of Never Can Say Goodbye (HarperOne), always asking: What would it look lie to tend to one another well?
No prior experience is required—just curiosity, care, and reverence for the living world that supports us through life’s final transition.
We hope to meet you there!
