Biography
Jenny Montgomery has always been deeply involved in the visual arts since her teen years growing up in the small community of Michigan City, Indiana, and she continues to be an avid photographer. After earning her BA in Photography from Chicago’s Columbia College, Jenny realized her dream of living in New York, first helping to curate work at an art gallery in Chelsea before moving down the street to Company 3. She began assisting for Tom Poole in 2016 and quickly moved to becoming a colorist in her own right.
Her work includes the beautiful and kinetic “Will Finds a Way” spot for Under Armour, which stars Dwaine Johnson and focusses on multiple sporting events; Lyft’s powerful campaign “America Is An Idea, Not A Geography”; Nike’s evocative “Re-invent Yourself” commercials and music videos for young artists such as Parquet Courts and Carlie Hanson. Montgomery has colored many films, including Netflix’s Ghost of Sugar Land, which won the short film jury award for nonfiction at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, the documentary Exit 12, which took home the short jury prize at SXSW 2019, writer/director Mariama Diallo’s provocative Hair Wolf, which won the Jury Award for short fiction film at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival and feature, Flames, directed by Zefrey Throwell and Josephine Decker, which premiered at the 2017 Tribeca Film Festival. Most recently she graded the feature Shithouse that took the Grand Jury Prize at SXSW 2020.
