Portrait of Jenny Kleiman

Jenny Kleiman

BIO Jenny Kleiman is a NY-based screenwriter, director, and producer. She was featured by Austin Film Festival and No Film School as #5 on the “25 Screenwriters to Watch in 2021” list. Her 2020 short Sofa Queen was selected by twenty international festivals for main competition and won thirteen awards including the Grand Jury Prize at Film Invasion LA. Jenny’s narrative work "finds the fun and funny in trauma," united in thematic explorations of changing families, sex, and the taboo. She puts the Queer Jew in LGBTQ, and her expertise lies at the weird, genre-bending intersection of dark comedy, thriller, and horror. When she’s not writing and directing, Jenny is a ‘Script to Screen' Counselor and Coach helping writers and filmmakers of all identities to develop complex women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ protagonists.
