KYLE MUMFORD
DIRECTOR, PRODUCER, EDITOR
Kyle Mumford grew up on the outskirts of Asbury Park, New Jersey. As a very young child, he was diagnosed with Tourette syndrome, Dyslexia, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and AD/HD; and a psychologist told his parents that he wouldn’t amount to very much.
At the same time, Kyle fell in love with movies. Ignoring the “experts,” Kyle began to make movies. In high school, Kyle’s short films got him accepted into the School of Visual Arts where he expanded into animation, documentary, music videos, freelance editing gigs and feature films.
“Mumford’s Law” is his first documentary feature. He is now doing post production on his second feature, a drama; and developing three other feature projects.
