Michael Doshier is a multifaceted writer and filmmaker residing in Los Angeles, with a unique background as a gay city-dweller who spent his formative years in the Bible Belt.
As a result, his work is deeply focused on the intricacies of the queer coming-of-age experience, often overlooked in mainstream narratives.
His feature film "Throuple", which he wrote and stars in, has been selected for numerous prestigious film festivals in 2024, including Boston Wicked Queer, Outshine Miami, Pink Apple, Sunny Bunny, Lovers, Windsor International, and Frameline.
Inspired by his own experiences dating married men while performing with his band in Brooklyn's underground music scene, "Throuple" is an open-relationship romantic comedy that promises to captivate audiences.
In recent years, Doshier has dedicated himself to bringing his next project to the Queer South, a region often underrepresented in media.
His script "Ronita Rambo" achieved semi-finalist status in the 2023 Academy Nicholl Fellowship in Screenwriting, one of only 150 scripts selected from a pool of 5,599 entries.
Additionally, "Ronita Rambo" advanced in the Sundance Development Lab, a testament to Doshier's growing recognition as a talented screenwriter.
Michael's TV pilot "Branson" won the 2018 Missouri Stories Competition, a fellowship run by the Missouri Film Office to discover and nurture the best stories set within the state.
As a performer, Doshier has written and performed sold-out and critically acclaimed solo shows for The PIT's SoloCom Festival and Fringe Festivals in both New York City and Prague.
He holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dramatic Writing from NYU Tisch, where he received the Venable Herndon Award for Excellence in Screenwriting.
