Jasmine Patrice White (she/her) is an African American writer and producer. White first garnered attention for her work on the digital series, Hotline, where she raised over $15,000 to complete production.
White is a 2022 recipient of the CRNY grant for $1.6M to produce Original content for BronxNet. Prior to winning the grant, White was a junior executive on the Lifetime Original movies team.
White graduated from Syracuse University’s S.I. Newhouse, where she majored in Television, Radio, and Film with a dual degree in English and African American studies.
I write strongly from a black, queer and fat perspective. I’m very conscious of those sorts of bodies and experiences propagating my stories.
I’m always rearranging the lens to incorporate those points of view. I write that way for my loved ones because they deeply inspire me. But I also write that way for myself, because had I seen that representation growing up - as a young, black, fat, queer Christian - maybe I could’ve skipped some traumas.
I’m satisfied with my work, when I develop universal fully fleshed characters who are relatable to anyone, without having the reader think – Oh, here I am reading about a transgender character, doing what I expect a transgender character to do. In "Hotline", I think I’ve succeeded in that aspect and in conveying complexity, while adding a bit of intrigue.
