BIO
|
Isabelle Pierre is a writer, producer, actress and comedian (phew!) from Brooklyn -- living in Atlanta. With a background in theater and improv, Isabelle has also worked as a teaching artist. You can catch her on network TV playing a number of sad and serious characters. She's self-produced an original pilot called VOWS and her own stand-up comedy special called PARTICIPATION AWARD. She’s currently working on a feature, a teen-fantasy/drama called SPECIALIZED and can be found doing stand-up comedy over zoom.
She loves, naps, ice cream, TV, boxing, reading and collecting books she hasn't yet read. Her immigrant parents are very concerned this entertainment thing will work out. |
Writing & PRODUCing
VOWS
In 2016, I almost married a friend in danger of losing her artist visa to help keep her in the country. We would have checked off every suspicious box in what was becoming an increasingly anti-immigrant national environment: 1. same-sex couple; 2. different cultural backgrounds; 3. women of color. After reconsidering this terrible and dangerous idea, we decided to make a show about it instead.
