Din Blankenship

Din is an Atlanta-based filmmaker. Her first documentary, Refuge premiered at DOC NYC in 2021 and was awarded Special Mention in the U.S. Competition. Din also directed and produced the short documentary, Worthy that is in Post-Production. She is currently in development on Love, Your Birth mom, which follows the journey of several pregnant women who are considering adoption.

The film is currently in development and is scheduled to begin production in early 2022. Prior to filmmaking, Din worked in architecture for over a decade. She has a Masters in Architecture with High Distinction from the University of Michigan and a Bachelor of Science in Architecture from the University of Virginia. In 2021, Din founded her production company, Late Bloomer Films, and while her creative interests span many mediums, she has found her passion in filmmaking.
