Award-winning writer/director Taylor Bakken hails from the land of negative sixty degree winters and Prince, although her household was more preoccupied with the likes of Jimmy Buffett and Frank Zappa. Taylor began by cutting her teeth with Robert Downey Jr. working on his development team. A few years later, she became Patty Jenkins’ right hand and, alongside Patty, associate-produced Chris Pine’s directorial debut POOLMAN. She has directed numerous short films including THE ORIGIN STORY (OF GERALD THE LEMON) and most recently WHAT’S THE DEAL WITH BIRDS? starring Kimia Behpoornia and Chris Pine, which Taylor is currently developing into a feature-length film.
