Angel Kristi Williams

Angel Kristi Williams is an award winning filmmaker born and raised in West Baltimore, Maryland. She was 8 years old when her late father gave her a VHS camcorder which sparked her love for the medium. After studying visual art, photography and experimental film, Angel developed a voice that embraces... silence and the power of the image to tell a story. Her feature directorial debut Really Love, produced by MACRO, won the Special Jury Recognition for Acting for co-stars Kofi Siriboe and Yootha Wong-Loi-Sing at SXSW. The film then played as part of AFI Fest’s Special Presentations to much acclaim. Angel is a Sundance Institute Momentum Fellow as well as a Film Independent Project Involve Directing Fellow, where she was the recipient of their Sony Pictures Diversity Fellowship. Angel won an NAACP Image Award for directing Colin in Black and White, her first episode of television. She directed an episode of Naomi for CW and will later helm the season 2 opener of Cherish the Day for OWN.
