Arden Earnest is a writer and director of twisty stories and complicated anti-heroes—many of them from her own family history.      

 

An alum of the AFI Conservatory and USC School of Cinematic Arts, she is the recipient of a Slamdance Screenplay Award, a ScreenCraft Grand Prize Winner, and was awarded AFI's Writers Room Ready distinction. Arden has projects with Whitaker Entertainment, Big Swell Entertainment, and Everard Entertainment. When she isn’t spending an obscene amount of time in Final Draft, you can find her arguing that Heat is, in fact, a love story.

​

Arden is represented by UTA, Bellevue Productions, and Vainshtein Law.
