Biography
Tony Tost is an American screenwriter, director, and poet who shaped prestige television around underdog narratives and historical friction. Born July 27, 1975, he created Damnation, a neo-western period drama centered on labor wars during the 1930s that aired on USA Network and Netflix outside the US. He wrote and directed Americana, a 2023 neo-western crime drama produced by Lionsgate, and stepped into the showrunner role for the second season of Peacock's mystery anthology Poker Face. As a screenwriter, Tost balances narrative scope with historical specificity, pulling from his background as a poet and critic. His career reflects a Capricorn's gift for long-form architecture—each project a deliberate structure rather than a flash. Life path 6 leans him toward responsibility and craft: the kind of creator who serves the material first.
