Lisa Robinson is an award-winning director and screenwriter. Her feature writing and directing includes Claire in Motion, starring Betsy Brandt (Breaking Bad) which premiered in the narrative competition at SXSW in 2016 and was distributed around the world by Visit Films. The LA times called it "a quietly, affecting psychological mystery," and RogerEbert.com noted its "unique emotional and intellectual tenderness."

Small, Beautifully Moving Parts, starring Anna Margaret Hollyman (Gayby) and Andre Holland (Moonlight), also premiered at SXSW in 2011 and won the Sloan Feature Film Prize at the Hamptons International Film Festival. Roger Ebert called the film "effortlessly engaging" and it was a Critic's Pick at Time-Out Magazine. The film was released by Film Movement.

Robinson was chosen for the inaugural NBC Female Forward Television Directing Program in 2018. She's been directing TV since 2019 including multiple episodes of NBC's The Blacklist and FOX's Prodigal Son. She also directed Escaping the Nxivm Cult, a TV movie starring Peter Facinelli (Twilight) and Andrea Roth (Rescue Me) as well as the ITVS futuristic series Futurestates that had its series premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival.

Robinson has made three award-winning short films that screened at festivals around the world including Cannes-Directors Fortnight, Telluride and Slamdance. She is the recipient of the Martin E. Segal Prize, Yaddo Paul Newman Fellowship, and a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship. She received her BA from UC Berkeley in Film Studies and her MFA from NYU's Film Directing Program.
