TOMMY DORFMAN is an accomplished actress, writer, director, and producer whose work spans film, television, and theater. Best known for her breakout role in the hit Netflix series 13 REASONS WHY, Dorfman has since gone on to build a dynamic career, while consistently shining a light on her experiences as a trans woman in Hollywood.

On May 27th, Dorfman released her debut memoir, MAYBE THIS WILL SAVE ME with Hanover Square Press, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers. Structured through the cards of a Tarot pull and touching on themes of self-discovery and resilience, Dorfman expertly traverses her journey through art, addiction ultimately: transformation. The book received critical praise and became an instant National Bestseller. Last fall, Dorfman made her Broadway debut in Sam Gold’s adaptation of ROMEO + JULIET, starring alongside Kit Conner and Rachel Zegler. The production marked Dorfman’s return to the New York stage and her first acting role since publicly coming out as transgender. In this fresh take on the classic, Dorfman took on dual roles as the ‘Nurse’ and ‘Tybalt.’

Quickly following, Dorfman starred in BECOMING EVE, a New York Theatre Workshop production based on Abby Chava Stein's memoir. The production opened April 7 to critical acclaim, with The New York Times praising it as “a welcome tonic, served in a Kiddush cup.” For her turn as the titular character, 'Chava’, Dorfman earned her first nomination for a Drama League Award in the category of "Distinguished Performance". The show received two additional nominations in the categories of “Outstanding Production of a Play” and “OutstandingDirection of a Play.” Dorfman also wrote, directed, and produced her first feature film, I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST, starring Corey Fogelmanis, Alexandra Daddario, Cole Sprouse, and Lena Dunham. The debut feature premiered at SXSW to positive reviews and is set for a theatrical release through Lionsgate on November 7, 2025.
