Having lived internationally as a child (Zambia, Austria, Germany, Namibia, Sierra Leone) Miranda Bowen came to London to complete a degree in fine art film and video at Central St. Martin’s. In 1998, Miranda formed an arts organization called ‘The Glue Factory’ which dedicated itself to promoting fine art and film and staging exhibitions in disused factories across London. Since then she has been concentrating on writing and directing short films, commercials and televised drama.

Miranda was short-listed for the Broadcast/BBC B+ awards as best new young director of the year, 2003, shortly after picking up numerous awards for her five minute short ‘Stagnate’, inspired by her stint at a “huge faceless corporation”. ‘Honeymoon’, written and directed for Cinema Extreme in 2006, stars Emilia Fox, and firmly cemented Miranda’s aesthetic with a compelling storytelling technique.

Miranda is currently in post on her latest feature 'Gozo' which film stars Joe Kennedy (Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll, Women In Love), Ophelia Lovibond (Nowhere Boy, No Strings Attached) and Daniel Lapaine (Brokedown Palace).

D.H. Lawrence’s ‘Women in Love’, written by Billy Ivory, and starring Rosamund Pike, was Miranda’s most recent feature drama which screened on both BBC4 and BBC2 in 2011.

‘Cast Offs’, a “sharp edged satire”, starring six disabled people marooned on an island, launched an insightful debate about what seems one of our last prejudices. It was also nominated for ‘Best Drama Series’ by the Royal Television Society.
