Portrait of Ingrid Haas

About Ingrid

I have always been interested in what’s underneath.

One voice.
Many forms.

Ingrid Haas is a writer, director, actor, and creative producer whose work explores modern womanhood, reinvention, ambition, grief, and the stories we tell to make sense of a messy life.

Comedy & television

Over more than twenty years in comedy, she wrote on Workin’ Moms, created and shot an original pilot for E!, worked on unaired pilots with Craig Robinson and Michael Kosta, sold an original series to NBCUniversal, and developed projects with Chelsea Handler, Ryan Seacrest Productions, JAX Media, and other major production companies.

She has worked with writer-directors including Jen Statsky, Paul W. Downs, and Lucia Aniello, and has appeared on Hacks and American Housewife.

Creative producing

Creative producing is her strong suit: working closely with writers and directors to shape story, strengthen comedy, solve problems, and protect what makes a project good.

She is particularly drawn to underrepresented voices. Her recent work includes films centered on women over 35, Black women, and trans women, with more projects currently in development.

Films, festivals & audience

She wrote and directed Still Wylde and The Pink. Work she has written, directed, or produced has screened at Sundance Film Festival, SXSW, Fantasia International Film Festival, and Palm Springs International ShortFest.

She hosted Wondery’s The Moment, which reached more than 300,000 subscribers and was named one of the year’s best podcasts by The Atlantic.

She is a Canadian Comedy Award winner and former UCB performer. See her full credits on IMDb.

Performance

Her commercial work includes national campaigns with directors Jake Szymanski, Jonathan Krisel, and Aaron Stoller. She is represented by SBV Talent for commercials and voiceover.

A recovering actor (who still performs regularly). Based between Toronto and Los Angeles.
