Congratulations are in order for playwright/filmmaker David E. Talbert.

The Washington, DC-bred talent and his wife Lyn are the proud parents of a baby boy named Elias David Talbert.

The couple’s son was born on January 10 and weighed 8 lbs, 7 oz and was 21 inches long.

The 46-year-old playwright rose to stardom for writing and producing high-quality touring plays like “Mr. Right Now,” “His Women, His Wife,” “The Fabric Of A Man,” and “He Say, She Say But What Does God Say?.”
