Don’t worry, there’s enough of me to go around. 




Mila Rae Mancuso (b. 2001) is a Brooklyn-based poet, screenwriter, and artist working within 16mm, 35mm, and 120mm analog film. She is haunted by Antonin Artaud's theatrical scenarios and a white rabbit with a pocket watch. She received her BA from Emerson College in Poetry and Experimental Filmmaking. Her work explores the surreal, domestic feminism, and the macabre. She recently finished writing her first feature film, Unknown Vintage.

Her work has been featured in The Drift, Hobart, Dream Boy Book Club, Revolutions Per Minute Film Fest, Old Pal Magazine, Inferno, Wingless Dreamer, and Millennial Pulp. She is currently a Poetry Reader for Passengers Press.
