Director's bio

David Lynch

David Lynch (1946–2025) was an American filmmaker, artist, and musician whose surreal, dreamlike style made him one of cinema’s most distinctive voices. His filmography spans cult classics and award-winning masterpieces, beginning with Eraserhead (1977), followed by The Elephant Man (1980), Dune (1984), Blue Velvet (1986), Wild at Heart (1990), Lost Highway (1997), Mulholland Drive (2001), and Inland Empire (2006). On television, he revolutionized storytelling with Twin Peaks (1990–91, revived in 2017), blending mystery, horror, and soap opera into a cultural phenomenon. Lynch’s accolades include the Palme d’Or at Cannes for Wild at Heart, the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement at Venice, multiple Academy Award nominations for Best Director, and the Academy Honorary Award (2019) recognizing his contributions to cinema. He also earned Emmy nominations for Twin Peaks and was celebrated worldwide as a visionary whose “Lynchian” style—mixing the ordinary with the bizarre—reshaped modern film and television. Beyond cinema, Lynch was a prolific painter, photographer, and musician, leaving behind a legacy that bridged art forms and inspired generations.
