Dana Brawer is a queer, poly writer, producer, and director originally from Nashville, where she grew up surrounded by Texas two-step and Southern folklore. Her genre-bending thriller feature, SECRET LIFE OF A DOMINATRIX, premiered on Tubi last year. Dana began her career in TV and was in the room of George RR Martin's NIGHTFLYERS, where she wrote many of the show's VR episodes. Most recently, she wrote for the drama series WHEN CALLS THE HEART. She has years of writers room experience, having been a writers assistant/script coordinator on shows like THE BLACKLIST, FBI: INTERNATIONAL, and FBI: MOST WANTED. Dana also wrote CryptTV’s WATER’S EDGE, which has over 2.5 million views, as well as the sci-fi comic book series NEON FUTURE (created by Steve Aoki). In addition to being a producer for massive broadcast commercial campaigns (Experian, DoorDash, Dollar General), as a director, Dana brings a unique science background to the table, having run the media departments at two tech startups. Her award-winning short films have played in major festivals, including LA Film Festival and Hollyshorts.
