Tatiana Tift is a Brooklyn-based writer, director, assistant director, and arts educator that has experience working across dance, narrative and experimental documentary short films. Originally from New Jersey, Tatiana has a diverse background in the creative field, in both the visual and performing arts as a previous theater actor and dancer.
Her creative work touches on themes of absurdism and fantasy centering around identity and environment.

She is currently in pre-production for her next short, which centers around the early 20th century Black Vaudeville and dance marathons.
