Biography

Born on the day she was due, Christmas Day, to parents who were both Stunt people. Raised in Mammoth Lakes, California, Tawny was a ski racer from a very young age. She then returned to the LA area and moved in with her father in Malibu, took up volleyball and had more hair colours than Dennis Rodman.

After graduating high school she tried a year of junior college....and just wasn't interested in it all. She then worked a little on The Matrix Reloaded with her father...who was now a Director. Her father, David Ellis, asked her to join his crew for his next film, Final Destination 2 (2003) in the Executive Assistant capacity. She left for her first location to Vancover, Canada. Working a year on that picture fueled an interest in the creative world of film making for her. With David's next picture, she was given promotion to Associate Producer and is now beginning what she hopes will be a very long, creative and lucrative career. Stay Tuned...........
