Douglas Larlham

Known for minimalist visual aesthetics, plot-propelling payoffs, and exceptionally well-constructed dialogue, you certainly know a Douglas Larlham film when you're watching one. Douglas is an award-winning Writer, Director, Radio Host, and Comedian. After graduating from the Ohio Center for Broadcasting, Douglas got his start as an entertainer accepting a position at KRAI in Craig, Colorado. In 2008, he was awarded "Best Afternoon Drive Show" from the Colorado Broadcasters Association and felt his Ohio calling him home. Just a year later, radio took him back home to Ohio, where, while working as a co-host for the Cleveland Indians pregame show on WEOL, he began his stand-up comedy career. This proved validating when he was named "Best Amateur Comedian in Ohio." Perhaps, another move was in order? Just months after that victory, and pre-midlife-crisis, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue stand up, but instead of finding a steady career, he met the love his life, filmmaking. You could call the affair, "torrid," and not only due to the Southern California climate. Always up to make a change, Douglas dove head first into fully transitioning to full-time filmmaking with his directorial debut, "Puppy Love" which was accepted into the prestigious Tribeca Film Festival in 2016. Douglas has no plans to slow down, and it should also be stated, he wrote this bio, for which, we can all agree, he will not be winning any awards.
