Summer Vaughan

Raised in the Humanitarian Award-winning Kallis family, Summer embarked on her cinematic journey at an early age. Attending Fresno University's film intensive at 14 and later majoring in film & media studies at the New School, Summer honed her skills under the mentorship of Noah Isenberg.

After starting off her career as a PA, Summer Vaughan quickly worked her way up to 1st AD and producer, before earning the opportunity to work as a writer and director. Summer’s haunting debut film, Josephine won an IndieFEST Film Award and gained her recognition for the mostly women-focused narratives driving her creative vision. Summer’s body of work has explored a variety of genres, including psychological thrillers, dark comedy, and drama. Her extensive filmography, written about in publications like Twang Nation, has been described as David Lynch-inspired with a modern flare. She has a keen eye for detail and an adept affinity for capturing the distilled essence of the complex human psyche on screen.

She recently premiered her film, Letter Eight, starring Carson Higgins (Babylon) at the Santa Monica Film festival and received three award nominations. Summer enjoys shooting on 35mm and has partnered with Kodak for projects.
