Harvey Rabbit, a transgender artist residing in Berlin, Germany, holds a Master's degree in dramaturgy and a Master of Fine Arts in Experimental Theater from New College of California. He has been an advocate for LGBTQIA* and sex worker rights since the mid-90s, using spoken word as his medium to speak about feminism, queerness, and empowerment. He was selected for the 2007 CESTA “Waste” festival in Tàbor, Czech Republic, and his one-woman show “Madge’s Box” was chosen for the 2008 San Francisco Fringe Festival.

In 2016, his first short film, Slowdance (2016), premiered at the Berlin Porn Film Festival and has been shown in queer film festivals in many parts of Europe, South and Central America, and the USA. In 2017, he produced “We Are the Fucking World,” a short film for Erika Lust. His most recent work, The Chemo Darkroom (2018), was selected for the shorts competition in the Berlin Porn Film Festival, Berlin Feminist Film Week, IKFF Hamburg, and the 2019 Hacker Porn Film Festival in Rome. Harvey's first feature film is "Captain Faggotron Saves the Universe."
