ABOUT THE DIRECTOR

Berry Newkirk is an actor-turned-director who honed his craft on stage and screen in NYC and the Southeast. Moving to LA just before the pandemic, he seized the pause in production to create his short film Tenderheart, taking on acting, writing, directing, and producing. His leap behind the camera blends serendipity, stubbornness, and a touch of insanity—all for the love of storytelling.
