Dani DeLay Ferro is the American daughter of former Congressional leader Tom Delay.
She worked for her father and is notable, in her own right, because of questions about payments she received and her ties to lobbyists.[1]
In 2001 the Washington Post asked questions about payments she received from a Political Action Committee that supported DeLay.[1]
In 2004 the New York Times questioned Ferro's management of the charity Celebrations for Children Inc..[2][3] According to the New York Times a letter to the charity, from the New York State's office of the Attorney General:
...said its brochure for the charity events did not include a clear description of the organization's program and did not say if the three organizers - Mr. DeLay's daughter, Dani DeLay Ferro, and two of his longtime political aides - would be paid.
The Washington Post reported on October 13 2004 that Ferro's phone records were subpoenaed by Texas prosecutor Ronnie Earle.[4] The phone records were subpoenaed to help determine whether DeLay was receiving illegal campaign contributions.
Ferro is involved in the production of a documentary profiling her, entitled: "Don't Tell Me What To Think". The documentary will describe her work as her father's campaign manager and organizer of his fund-raising events.

Mr. DeLay's charity, Celebrations for Children Inc., was set up in September and has no track record of work. Mr. DeLay is not a formal official of the charity, but its managers are Mr. DeLay's daughter, Dani DeLay Ferro; Craig Richardson, a longtime adviser; and Rob Jennings, a Republican fund-raiser. Mr. Richardson said the managers would be paid by the new charity.
