Ezra Edmond
Ezra Edmond is a writer, director, producer, and the creative mind behind the heartwarming animated short film, “Blewish.” Born from Ezra’s passion for storytelling and inspired by his own background, “Blewish” captures the journey of a young biracial Jewish boy as he navigates his unique identity and seeks a sense of belonging. Through vibrant animation and dialogue-free storytelling, “Blewish” explores themes of friendship, self-acceptance, and the power of embracing one’s true self. The film has touched the hearts of audiences worldwide, having been featured at over eighteen film festivals. Ezra’s next project is a children’s book, My Friend LeVar, scheduled for release this October from Charlesbridge Publishing. The book highlights Ezra’s deep love of reading and how LeVar Burton and his classic book-feature television series, Reading Rainbow, helped inspire and foster that love.
