A native of Chicago (Kathy Deutch) and long-time Bostonian, Kat Tatlock brings to her writing, producing and directing a true love of people, places, and stories.
Mother of two dazzling writer/performer/educator daughters, Alison and Jessica, and proud grandmother of Eli, Serena and Iris, Kat is also one of three filmmaker daughters of Paris & Chicago artists, Helene and Stephen Deutch. She has written, produced and directed dozens of award-winning dramatic and documentary films and videos for a wide variety of clients, markets, and venues. A graduate of New Trier High School in Winnetka, the U of Michigan and Sorbonne, Boston University Film School, and the Sundance Institute where she developed her first feature screenplay, Kat was also the founding VP of Women in Film & Video New England and has conducted many workshops in writing, producing and directing in the community.
Kat is currently producing “The Kasia Project,” a feature documentary about the world of a unique doctor/athlete/musician/filmmaker ovarian cancer survivor and has recently written narrations for two six-hours public television series produced in the Netherlands and Boston, “Water – The Drop of Life,” and “A Dollar A Day” (global poverty), and is developing a dramatic feature on the post-impressionist artist Suzanne Valadon with her friend and colleague Rebecca Richards.
Contrasting these serious projects, Kat is delighted to be directing “11 Central Avenue,” a fast and funny radiostrip currently airing on public radio. “I grew up in Chicago listening to shows like The Lux Radio Theater, The Shadow, and The Lone Ranger with my family (or under the covers after lights-out with my big sister), so working on this show is a total trip. I was able to cast some of the best actors I’ve ever directed and Sue Shepherd’s brilliant scripts bring out their charismatic wit and capture today’s complex world and family life with lovingly critical insight and humor. Work is not supposed to be such fun!”
