About Me

SCREENWRITER, FILMMAKER, AUTHOR

I’m Ty Leisher, a screenwriter, director and filmmaker. I grew up in the shadow of Hollywood and was addicted to telling stories from the time I was eight. I’ve had the honor of directing such talented actors and musicians as MTV’s Faking It star Michael J Willett, Miss USA 2006 Tara Conner, The Voice’s Erick Macek, Dexter star Dave Baez and Poker Pro Ali Eslami. 

I was selected as a semi-finalist in the 2015 Sundance Episodic Story Lab for my drama pilot, Line of Succession. I followed it up with Nuns with Guns, starring Tom Sizemore, and recently directed 11th Hour Cleaning. In 2012, my web series Bullets was heralded as “Better than Rounders” by Bluff Magazine.
