Biography

A Baton Rouge, Louisiana native, Dewey Allen is an American film producer, director, actor, and screenwriter specializing in the action and drama genres. When he is not producing films, Allen spends time perfecting his craft for songwriting and is also an aspiring author. Every avenue of expressed talent has provided Allen with growth, exposure and humility.

Allen, in addition to his many talents, is not only a proud father of published author Raheem Allen, but a professional, and a pillar in the community. He enjoys being meticulous and finding depth and meaning in both his personal and professional life. Because of this, Allen expresses his passion to produce movies with admirable plots that relate to his audience that come primarily "from the soul" and various life experiences.
