Hi there — I am a filmmaker, writer, and creative at large born, raised, and living among the jasmine and bougainvillea of Los Angeles.

My documentary credits include work with The New York Times, Netflix, Hulu, ABC, and many more (IMDB). I’m a digital producer for The LA Podcast and have bylines in Heavy Feather Review, La Republicca, and Screen Queens, among others.

I have spoken on radio, TV, and podcasts — NPR’s LAist, People, KCAL News, The LA Local, and many more — about my advocacy with Crosswalks Collective LA. I program events and sell books at Sideshow Books and am on the board of directors for the nonprofit The Living Museum of the Book.

I curate an annual poetry collection, February Feels Like, write for a labor consulting firm, and wear many other hats.

I formerly worked in Congress (CA-28, CA-14), consulted on congressional campaigns, and served as an elected representative on two LA neighborhood councils.

Please send a message to biancacockrell@gmail.com if you’d like to work together or recommend a new ice cream spot in town.
