Olivia Ormond is an actor, writer, and director working between New York and Los Angeles. Her work spans film and theater, creating intimate, character-driven stories that explore vulnerability and identity.

Her acting debut came with her autobiographical solo show Call Me Crazy, which premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to critical acclaim, with The Indiependent calling it “Fleabag, only better.” The show established Ormond as a performer with a distinctive voice, one rooted in emotional honesty, dark humor, and lived experience. She later adapted the piece into a short film in which she stars.

At the 2026 Sundance Film Festival, Ormond partnered with Sundance to present an exclusive preview of the film Call Me Crazy, followed by a panel discussion exploring vulnerability, creative risk, and the evolving landscape of independent filmmaking.

The conversation brought together filmmakers and industry change makers, including the team behind the Julia Fox film Perfect, for an intimate dialogue about the power of personal storytelling and the courage required to create before you feel ready. The event drew a packed audience and sparked a dynamic exchange on collaboration, authenticity, and the role of community in shaping the next generation of independent cinema.

Alongside her work as an actor and narrative filmmaker, Ormond is a two-time Emmy Award winning documentary director whose projects have earned recognition for their visual style and emotional depth.

She continues to develop new narrative projects as a writer and director while actively performing in upcoming film and television work, both in her own projects and in collaboration with other filmmakers.
