About
Leisa Coffman is a filmmaker, singer-songwriter, screenwriter, novelist, and the founder of the Luna Lumen Film Festival — a creative force who refuses to be confined to a single medium. Heir to the publishing legacy of Isaak Kauffman Funk, co-founder of Funk & Wagnalls, storytelling runs in the blood.
​
As the architect of the Luna Lumen creative universe, Coffman has built an ecosystem where stories move fluidly from page to screen to song. Bird by Bird Publishing (Triple B) brings original literary works to life. Luna Lum Films produces cinematic stories with a singular voice. Original music scores each project with emotional depth. And the Luna Lumen Film Festival — now in its sixth year — has become a growing home for independent filmmakers and audiences who believe in the power of authentic cinema.

Don Cunningham is an experienced filmmaker that began from being a lover of film so much that he christened his film collection as the Cunningham Film Archive. Cunningham's knowledge in classic film work and his popular short film "The Castle of Baron Finch", which keeps winning festivals, is what makes him being the perfect Director of Nostalgia. We created this category because of his winning entry with LLFF in 2025 and brought him aboard. Last but not least he is an Army veteran!!
