Penny Lane (born March 6, 1978) is an American independent filmmaker known for her humorous, innovative documentaries, including Our Nixon (2013), Nuts! (2016) and Hail Satan? (2019).
Filmmaker Magazine named Lane one of “25 New Faces of Independent Film” in 2012.
In 2017, she was admitted into the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
Ella Taylor of NPR described Lane as “one of our foremost chroniclers of bizarro Americana.” Museum of the Moving Image chief curator David Schwartz organized her first major retrospective in 2018, writing "in the past few years, Penny Lane has quickly emerged as a major documentary filmmaker." Ann Hornaday wrote that Lane "might be documentary film's most compellingly cockamamie social historian," while Chris Plante wrote in The Verge in 2016, "Lane is the answer to a question more people should be asking: who's the great documentarian of this generation?"
