New York Times bestselling author, Nyle DiMarco, has broken down barriers and won over audiences since he burst onto the scene in 2014. A successful model and actor, Nyle was featured in episodes of QUEER AS FOLK, STATION 19, and SWITCHED AT BIRTH. As a producer, Nyle was the driving force behind such successful programs as DEAF U and AUDIBLE on Netflix, the former earning an Academy Award nomination. DiMarco is currently producing and developing scripted and non-scripted programming, as well as consulting on disability inclusion. Additionally, DiMarco is co-directing a documentary with esteemed filmmaker Davis Guggenheim, marking his first foray behind the camera as a director.
Not to mention, he won America’s Next Top Model in 2015 and BBC Worldwide’s ‘Dancing with the Stars’ in 2016.
