Danny Rogers

Danny Rogers

Danny Rogers is a writer, director, and actor who tells provocative stories that explore complex identity issues and blur traditional genre lines. His mom is a black woman from Jamaica. His dad is a white man from New Jersey. He's a pale, ginger biracial man. The paradox of his mixed racial identity and the strange experiences that come along with it inspire much of the writer, director, and actor's creative work. After graduating from Dartmouth College with a Bachelor's in US history, Danny moved to New York City, where he got one of his first jobs as a membership desk assistant at an esteemed museum on 5th Avenue. Working in the fine art world was only a brief detour on his intended career path as he later broke into television production as a CBS Page for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and a production assistant for Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. In 2022, he graduated with an MFA in Film & Television Production from USC’s School of Cinematic Arts. Danny is also the winner of the 28th Annual DGA Student Film Awards Jury Prize in the West Region/African American Category in 2022 for his thesis film, The Fairchild, which was screened at the American Black Film Festival (ABFF) in 2023. His brief time working at a prestigious museum in New York City and lifetime of feeling like a token in white institutions inspired the project. He is currently pursuing professional screenwriting and filmmaking in Los Angeles and looks to follow in the footsteps of a few of his main creative influences and other multi-hyphenate artists such as Spike Lee, Dave Chappelle, and Jordan Peele.
