Brittan Dunham

Brittan Dunham is an archivist and filmmaker based in Los Angeles. She co-produced and managed the archive for Matt Wolf’s Pee-Wee as Himself, which premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival and will air on HBO later this year. She works with artists and estates to organize their archives and help craft personal, character-driven documentaries, such as the Grammy nominated June (2023, Paramount+), about June Carter Cash, and It’s Only Life After All (2023, Netflix), which tracks the decades long career of folk rock duo Indigo Girls. She was the founding Archive Director at Parkwood Entertainment, and Archivist to Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, contributing to the visual albums Beyoncé and Lemonade, and several world tours. With Brittan’s help, Beyoncé’s signature during this period became the use of multi-format, nonlinear personal archival footage to create intimate, referential film and music poems. Brittan has a Master of Arts in Moving Image Archiving and Preservation from NYU and produces the Association of Moving Image Archivists’ annual Archival Screening Night, which has aired on Turner Classic Movies.
