The Dad Diaries: Because Real Risks Are Worth Taking

By Joseph Tito

Unflinchingly honest, heartwarming, and inspirational, The Dad Diaries charts jet-setting TV producer Joesph Tito's transformative journey toward parenthood.

One day, while visiting family in Toronto, a simple question from his young niece shook Joesph's world: "Why don't you have kids?" Travelling between network meetings in New York, TV shoots in Istanbul, red carpets in Cannes, Joseph lived for the joy of constant exploration and discovery. But, deep down, he always longed to become a father, raising children in the warm traditions of his own big Italian family while living true to his authentic self as an out and proud gay man.

In this globe-spanning tale about complexities of the surrogacy system, Joseph Tito opens up about the emotional, ethical, and material challenges he faced, from others and from within, as a gay man daring to redefine family on his own terms.
