BETHANY ASHTON WOLF

Born and raised in Louisiana, Bethany Ashton Wolf has had a passion for visual arts and southern literature since she was a young girl, influenced by the colorful characters of the French Quarter as well as the cultural melting pot of Louisiana itself.

Wolf moved to Los Angeles in her early twenties where she began her career as a screenwriter, co-writing the feature film DON'S PLUM starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Toby Maguire, followed by her screenwriting and directorial debut with the Cajun drama LITTLE CHENIER which won 21 Best Feature Film awards and Best American Film awards on the festival circuit worldwide.

Wolf has been married to comedian Josh Wolf for the past 20 years, and while raising their children together in LA, she has had numerous screenwriting assignments for both studios and independent production companies, has been hired to write for academy award-winning producers, wrote the award-winning screenplay LOVE SCENE which won awards across the globe on its festival run, and wrote for the screen and directed the feature film FOREVER MY GIRL. 

Wolf has also directed avant-garde music videos and written lyrical novellas for country stars, as well as executive producing and developing a series of inspiring docuseries for television with ITV America. 

“I am extremely humbled and grateful to be a working artist. My personal pilgrimage in filmmaking over the past two decades has taught me that there is always a way through to the other side. I am an advocate for collaboration, and I will always be inspired by a road less traveled. I aspire to continue writing and directing meaningful works of art that make people feel connected to each other, their families, and the vast tapestries of community that have made them who they are.”
