Director Biography - Tiffany Tenille



Tiffany Tenille is a storyteller captivated by cinematic worlds with an undercurrent of darkness. Her work often captures the coming-of-age journeys of young women teetering on the brink of mental collapse, a theme powerfully depicted in her directorial debut, Albion Rose. The short was awarded 'The Future of Film is Female' post-production grant, the Phenomenal Person in Film Award from Cinema Femme, and garnered recognition from RogerEbert.com, which hailed it as "utterly mesmerizing". Additionally, the film made its premiere at MoMA, in the closing night lineup for The Future of Film is Female: Part 4. Originally from Chicago, Tenille holds a BFA in Acting from The Theatre School at DePaul University. In front of the lens, Tenille delivered a breakout performance in Numa Perrier’s Jezebel, where her portrayal of the titular role drew critical acclaim during its world premiere at SXSW. The film’s subsequent release in theaters and on Netflix cemented Tenille as a rising star in the industry.
