Kat Coiro is a writer/director best known for her 2013 film "And While We Were Here", which she wrote, directed and produced for 150K, in 11 days, while eight months pregnant. Never intending to be a professional actress, Kat used acting as a launching pad to writing and directing her own work. As soon as she had her first string of successes, including the viral hit "Idiots" for Funny Or Die and her first feature film, the ultra, low-budget indie "Life Happens", she stopped acting and never looked back, finding herself much better suited to being behind the camera. Kat was born in New York City, spent some of her youth in Miami, FL, went to boarding school in Northern Michigan (Interlochen) and loves Los Angeles, where she lives with her husband the actor Rhys Coiro and their many children Hide
