Matt Warren

Matt Warren is a writer and video producer currently living in Long Beach, CA. By day, he works as the Digital Content Manager of Film Independent, the nonprofit arts organization that produces the Independent Spirit Awards and LA Film Festival. Originally from Park City, Utah, he developed his love of movies by ditching school and sneaking into Sundance – so much so that it once caused a minor electoral scandal for his mother, a senior member of the Summit County School Board. Matt's mom is now retired.
