Actor, author, writer, advocate — Hannah Diviney is your ultimate creative slashie. After going viral in 2020 with her petition to call for Disney to create a disabled Disney Princess, she’s carved out a space for herself in the media scene, fighting for disability representation in media and the creative arts. Her debut book, I’ll Let Myself In, came out last year, featuring a series of essays about what it means to come of age in a world not built for you. She’s led global campaigns that prompted both Beyoncé and Lizzo to change ablelist lyrics in their songs, and in 2022 made her acting debut in the critically acclaimed Latecomers, which also made her the first disabled Australian to film a sex scene. Her debut film, Audrey, a black comedy about a woman who takes her daughter’s identity when the latter falls into a coma, comes out this month.
