JAMIE DEWOLF is a writer, performer, film director, and circus ringmaster from Oakland, CA. He's a National Slam Champion, NPR's "Performer of the Year" and the creator of the "Tourettes Without Regrets" series, which Huffington Post called "the best underground performance art show in America". A filmmaker since his teens, DeWolf wrote, directed and starred in his first feature film Smoked, a '"fast paced, smart, witty dark comedy crime caper" about a botched Cannabis Club robbery in Oakland. The film is described as '"Mean, bloody and demented. It's also piss-your-pants hilarious, maddeningly nihilistic, and an insanely energetic romp." The film premiered at the Oakland Underground Film Festival, and played at the PollyGrind Film Festival in Las Vegas and Rio Grind Film Festival in Vancouver, Canada the same year. "Smoked" was picked up for international distribution by Indican Studios. DeWolf's original written and directed short films have won multiple awards from Best Acting Performance for a "A Girl and a Gun" (Briefs 2013), Best Cinematography for "Ricochet in Reverse" (Scream 2014), and Best Writing at Rio Grind 2014. His short film "Double Agent", a gender bending reimagining of a James Bond title sequence, was featured at the CineKink Film Festival in NYC. His short "U Turn" was selected for a The Invoking 2, a feature length horror film anthology franchise by Ruthless Pictures. He was voted '"Best Film-Maker" by the East Bay Express in 2016. He continues to host the annual Sacramento Horror Film Festival and teach high school students documentary and narrative film-making with Lunchbox International.
