Meghan Finn is a director of theater and film. As the Artistic Director of The Tank, a New York City-based nonprofit theater, she supports the work of over 3,000 performing artists annually. In 2020, she accepted an OBIE Award for The Tank’s excellence in service to artists.
As an artist herself, Meghan’s focus is contemporary playwriting and hybrid collaborations with visual artists and experimental writers. She has directed over 50 fully-staged theatrical productions since 2003.
Meghan’s work is critically-acclaimed and frequently featured in The New York Times, The New Yorker, Vulture, The Wall Street Journal and others. TimeOut NY recently called her, “the tiger in The Tank.”
As a changemaker, Meghan is a member of Immigrant Families Together and co-founded Each Step Home, an organization that assists refugee children who have been separated at the US border, reuniting them with their families.
