Bio
Allen Wolf is an award-winning filmmaker, author, game creator, and podcaster.
As an author, Allen wrote the critically-acclaimed novel The Sound of Violet. In their review of The Sound of Violet, Kirkus Reviews wrote, “The high-concept narrative is entertaining, well-paced, and highly visual. It’s a charming, humorous, and hopeful tale. A quirky, touching love story that offers insights into autism and religion.” The Sound of Violet has won multiple literary awards.
Allen wrote, directed, and produced The Sound of Violet, the movie adaption of his novel that is now available on video-on-demand, Blu-ray, and DVD. The screenplay won numerous awards and the film will bring awareness to human trafficking and help people see autism through a new lens.
Allen also wrote, directed, and produced the thriller In My Sleep that was released worldwide, won multiple film festival awards, and is available on iTunes and Amazon Prime. The Hollywood Reporter raved, “In My Sleep never rests, a credit to the tight, psychologically astute pacing of filmmaker Wolf.”
Allen has been awarded 39 awards for the games he has created that have been played around the world. His first game debuted in 2003 and quickly became popular.

In 2021, Allen launched the Navigating Hollywood podcast where he talks to entertainment professionals about their careers and how they navigate the ups and downs of Hollywood while staying emotionally and spiritually healthy.
Allen graduated from New York University’s film school summa cum laude. His senior thesis film, Harlem Grace, was a finalist for the Student Academy Awards.
