Biography

Filmmaker, artist and author, Michèle Stephenson, pulls from her Panamanian and Haitian roots and her experience as a human rights lawyer to think radically about storytelling and disrupt the imaginary in non-fiction spaces. She tells compelling, deeply personal stories that are created by, for and about  BIPOC communities that reimagine and challenge the status quo. She is a three-time Emmy Award nominee and winner of Tribeca and Sundance Festival Jury Prizes  and a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science. Her book, Promises Kept, written with co-authors Joe Brewster and Hilary Beard, won an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work. Stephenson is also a Guggenheim Fellow and a Creative Capital artist.
