John Flynn is a New York-based director and producer known for his dark, edgy dramas with complex characters. His love of cinema began with his obsession with Steven Spielberg at a young age; often replicating his films with his mother's camcorder. He began making all sorts of shorts in high school in his AV club but went to the next level when he started working on professional shorts such as Tom in America. Studying under Woody Allen's long time collaborator Thomas Reilly at Brooklyn College, he expanded his knowledge of filmmaking and went on to direct many shorts including Rain, which has screened at festivals and on premium television around the world. He has had films screened at festivals like SXSW, Palm Springs, Montreal World Film Festival, Cleveland, Outfest, and many more worldwide. His most recent film, Elegy, is his most ambitious to date - made during the COVID-19 pandemic and was one of the first official productions to be approved to shoot by New York State and SAG-AFTRA. Flynn currently resides in Brooklyn with his wife.
