Biography

BENJAMIN FONT is an up-and-coming writer/director whose film career began as the co-writer of Robert Schwartzman’s Dreamland, which premiered at Tribeca and was released by Orion Pictures. He made his feature directorial debut soon after with Madness, Farewell, a dark holiday comedy that he also wrote, produced, and starred in as the co-lead. His new short film Greta was commissioned by the award winning lit magazine Switchyard and had its World Premiere at the 40th Boston Film Festival and International Premiere at the Paris Film Art Festival.

With a distinct voice whose philosophies about life, love, and relationships are disguised sweetly by a raucous, relatable, and dark humor, Font’s future as an auteur that bridges the gap between independent and mainstream cinema is a bright one. He has several feature projects in development and is also the author of ten books, including his forthcoming collection Again and Again Then The End.

A self-taught artist and storyteller originally from Lincoln, Nebraska, Font currently resides in Los Angeles where he works as a freelance writer/director and was invited to be a visiting filmmaker at Vermont College of Fine Arts MFA in Film Winter 2025 Residency at CalArts.
