Kourtney Gleason has spent over a decade producing acclaimed films, series, documentaries, and branded work across the entertainment industry. With Happy Misfit Productions, she brings that experience to bold, emotionally intelligent stories built outside the usual mold.

Her longform credits include Into the Fire: The Lost Daughter (Emmy-nominated, Netflix), Becoming Bond (SXSW Audience Award, Hulu), Youtopia (Outfest Honorable Mention, Tubi), Periodical (Peacock), 88 (Tribeca / Starz), and Jellywolf (Clio Award-winning short for Chanel). She has also produced work for Freeform, Amazon, Comedy Central, Paramount+, CBS Viacom, POP Network, and Funny or Die.

In 2023, she launched Happy Misfit Productions, a company focused on distinctive, cinematic storytelling across scripted, unscripted, documentary, and branded work.

Her original short film Good Night June screened at LA Shorts International Film Festival and Indy Shorts International Film Festival and is now available to watch publicly. She is also developing a documentary exploring queer identity, community, and chosen family, alongside a growing slate of scripted and unscripted projects with a sharp POV and cinematic edge.
