KIERAN TURNER began his career in entertainment at the age of six as a child actor appearing in dozens of television commercials, episodic television and feature films. Retiring from acting at age 17, he then attended NYU receiving both a BFA and MFA in filmmaking from the Tisch School of the Arts. His first feature film, “24 Nights” (2001) which he wrote, produced and directed, was made as his graduate thesis, but took on a life of its own on the film festival circuit, playing in over 60 festivals worldwide and winning seven audience awards. The film was picked up for distribution by TLA Releasing and, due to increasing word of mouth popularity, has been a perennial seller for the company since its release.
In recent time, Kieran has turned his attention to the television arena, enrolling in UCLA and learning the craft of writing the one-hour drama. His first spec script, for Gilmore Girls, took 2nd place at the 2005 Austin Screenwriters Competition. His second spec, for Cold Case, took him to the finals for the Warner Brothers Television writing workshop. A third spec, for the Showtime series Weeds, secured Kieran one of only four slots in the Emerging Writers program sponsored by Terra Firma Films, the Production Company of Adam Herz, creator of the American Pie series. Through Terra Firma, Kieran wrote a feature horror film script, Hunted, which placed in the Top 5 at Slamdance Horror Screenplay competition in 2008 and is now in development for production with Herz’ company.
