Biography
Andy Compton is an Asian American writer and director from the heart of the Midwest—St. Louis, Missouri. Once a hard-partying high school dropout from a dysfunctional home, Andy found sobriety in his late-20s, turned his life around, and went on to graduate Cum Laude from Webster University with a BA in Scriptwriting and a Minor in Film and Television Production. In addition, Andy also graduated from The Improv Shop’s Training Center and played on a number of sketch and improv teams, writing and performing in dozens of live shows from 2017 to 2020. Much like his own story, Andy’s characters often navigate small-town worlds in search of their own larger-than-life triumphs, through which Andy balances his comedic sensibility with dramatic storytelling—shining a light on topics such as class struggle, addiction, and other dark aspects of life in the working-class Midwest. During his time in film school, he wrote his comedy feature, BELLYACHE, which is currently optioned with an Emmy-nominated producer and Emmy-winning star attached. Andy’s writing is often amusing, at times—heartbreaking, but always feels undeniably human.
