Tamala Baldwin

Tamala Baldwin, MBA, is a filmmaker, storyteller, and cultural architect whose work uses the power of story to heal, transform, and reimagine what is possible. She is the founding chair of The Becoming Love Project, a nonprofit media organization dedicated to the bold belief that love, when expressed through story, can spark personal and collective transformation.

Her artistry lives at the intersection of narrative and liberation, with credits spanning HBO, Disney/ABC, Hulu, BET+, Bon Appétit, and Condé Nast. In 2024, she made her directorial debut with Blended Christmas starring Jennifer Freeman, Victoria Rowell, and Anthony Dalton, now streaming on Paramount+.

Her digital series Bubbly Brown Sugar streams on Tubi and Black Oak TV, while her short film Torn was honored at the Cannes Film Festival Pavilion.

Baldwin’s work is defined by her commitment to cultural storytelling—producing campaigns like Say Her Name with the African American Policy Forum, collaborating on The Hair Tales (OWN/Hulu/Onyx), and contributing to Netflix’s Ladies First. Currently, she is in pre-production for A Day After Christmas and curating Becoming Love Fest, a groundbreaking festival of story, film, and healing.
