Interested in desperation and closeness, Jackson McKeehan writes and directs films, tv shows, and live performances that twist fact and fiction to create nuanced narratives around time, vulnerability, and connectivity.

Jack was born in the mountains of Montana and raised on a farm in rural Missouri. After studying acting, he went on to pursue a career in fashion design. His menswear collection, Boyswear, received critical success for its juxtaposition of cultural references and visual punch. Since, Jack has installed controversial sex cushions in a bathhouse, developed relationships with strangers through classified ads, lived in disguise in his hometown, and worked as a gas station attendant in rustic Montana. Jack’s design work has been featured in The New York Times, WWD, The LA Times, and more. His short films Blue, Diane and Sheila are currently screening in festivals across the country.

Jack holds an MFA in Art from Carnegie Mellon University, a BFA in Musical Theatre from Missouri State University, and an AAS in Menswear Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology.
