Artist Bio
Amy Jo Johnson is a multifaceted talent within the industry whose style of storytelling and filmmaking has a character-driven quirk and humour; taking tragi-comedic characters whose love for life can surpass dark circumstances. She recently directed her second feature film, TAMMY’S ALWAYS DYING, starring Felicity Huffman and Anastasia Phillips which had its word premiere at TIFF 2019. In 2016, Amy Jo wrote, produced, and directed her first feature film, THE SPACE BETWEEN. Financed in part through a successful crowdfunding campaign, THE SPACE BETWEEN had its world premiere at the Shanghai International Film Festival. Following the film’s grassroots theatrical release, Amy Jo (now a proud Canadian citizen) graduated from the Canadian Film Centre’s director’s program. Before turning her attention toward directing, the Cape Cod native worked for over 20 years as an accomplished actor, starring in popular television shows such as FELICITY, MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS, and FLASHPOINT.
