Drama has always been a part of Uttera Singh’s life. On the day she was born, her nine months pregnant mother was hit by a firecracker, rescued by her father, rushed to the hospital and that’s how this real life firecracker was born. That fiery spirit is still very much alive in her. Uttera is an MFA graduate of the USC School of Cinematic Arts. She is the recipient of the Ryan Murphy Diversity Fellowship and just finished directing her thesis film Fanny Pack a proof of concept for a half hour TV show starring Brian George from Big Bang Theory and Seinfeld. Her one-woman show Indian Lady Shakespeare wears Underwear is set to premiere in Los Angeles in the Fall. Uttera was chosen as one of the directors on the USC/James Franco feature film The Mad Whale starring Camilla Belle, Dominic Rains, Summer Phoenix and James Franco. Uttera lives in Los Angeles and spends her time going on adventures, then writing about them.
