Liv Jonsé

Screenwriter, Director, Photographer

Born and raised in the backwoods of Florida, Liv received her B.A. in Environmental Science and Civic Urbanism at Rollins College in 2014. Trying to make sense of where she lived led her underground into her school's basement, where she discovered a radio station and a penchant for using her voice. Upon graduation, she sought to carve out her own path, launching businesses focused on creating compelling imagery and recycling vintage clothing. But she realized her story was only just beginning, and enrolled in Florida State University’s MFA Film Writing program. Having been raised religious in the South, her work seeks to embolden women and explore the power of female desire.
