Tyler Rabinowitz is a writer, director, producer, and Chief Creative Officer of Turtle Run Entertainment. He is the Executive Producer and Co-Creator of OUTLAWS, a weekly podcast hosted by TS Madison on iHeartMedia’s Outspoken Podcast Network. The show features candid conversations with cultural icons—including Tina Knowles, Chappell Roan, and Laverne Cox—who shed their armor and own their stories. OUTLAWS is co-produced by Turtle Run Entertainment and iHeartPodcasts.

A graduate of NYU Tisch, Tyler has called nearly 25 addresses home—from Florida to New York to California—an ever-shifting backdrop that fuels his fascination with belonging in both literal and figurative senses. His storytelling is rooted in queer longing, painterly visuals, and a grounded emotional core, traversing grey areas in search of life’s most vivid truths.

As a producer, Tyler’s credits include LAVENDER, which premiered at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival and was acquired by Searchlight Pictures, and THE MESS HE MADE, which debuted at the 2017 SXSW Film Festival. He also produced Chappell Roan’s first-ever music video in 2017 for her debut single, GOOD HURT.

As a writer-director, his films include SEE YOU SOON, a queer romance starring James Cusati-Moyer and Johnny Beauchamp, screened at Outfest, BFI Flare, and the New Orleans Film Festival, earning a Special Jury Mention for Acting at NewFest and an Audience Pick at Palm Springs International ShortFest. Following its festival run, SEE YOU SOON premiered on Short of the Week, was selected as a Vimeo Staff Pick, and was listed among NoBudge’s Top 10 Short Films of 2020. Additional directing credits include CATALINA which premiered on Short of the Week, HOW I GOT TO THE MOON BY SUBWAY which was selected as a Vimeo Staff Pick, and ALIENTOLOGISTS, which received the National Board of Review's Marion Carter Green Award.

Tyler’s work has been recognized and supported by leading artistic institutions, including the Academy Nicholl Fellowship (2020 Semifinalist), the Sundance Institute (Ignite Fellowship, Artist Talent Forum, and Creative Producing Summit), Tribeca Film Institute, Jacob Burns Film Center, and Inside Out’s Film Finance Forum. In 2011, he was honored with a Presidential Scholar in the Arts medallion by the U.S. Department of Education.

Currently, Tyler is developing his first feature film as a director. Across all formats and platforms, his goal is to create storytelling experiences that are as entertaining as they are meaningful, contributing to the conversations of our time.
