Emmy Award-nominated television producer Allyce Ozarski grew up near San Diego in Poway, California, and graduated from the University of Washington with honors, where she double majored in International Studies and Italian. Upon graduation, she got a job in Los Angeles selling rugs with her lifelong friend Caroline Mink-Richardson. A chance meeting with a television director led to her first job in the industry.
Ozarski went on to become an accomplished television producer, renowned for her contributions to several acclaimed television series. She was an executive producer on Netflix's upcoming series Golf from Will Ferrell, Gloria Sanchez Productions, and T-Street Productions, and an executive producer on Pluribus, Vince Gilligan's highly anticipated upcoming series for Apple TV+. Her other notable collaborations include her longtime partnership with Showtime, where, under an overall deal, she served as executive producer on all three seasons of The L Word: Generation Q (2019-2021). She was also an executive producer on Annapurna Pictures and Showtime's I Love That For You (2022), as well as Showtime's limited series Super Pumped (2022). Additionally, she produced Smilf (2019) for Showtime, Baskets (2019) for FX, and Problematic With Moshe Kasher (2017) for Comedy Central.
In 2018, Ozarski received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Variety Sketch Series for her role as a producer on I Love You, America (2017) for Hulu.
Ozarski and her producing partner Anna Dokoza had recently co-founded Funny Adjacent Productions with the goal of combining their years of experience to develop and produce a wide range of projects in both narrative and unscripted formats.
Ozarski will always be remembered as a powerful presence who cared deeply about every little detail, her sense of humor, and, above all things, her integrity. She saw the best in everyone. She always fought for safer working conditions for her film crews and elevated those with whom she worked. Those who knew her well will surely miss the sound of her heels, her endless (ethical) animal prints, and unwavering belief in the art she made and the people with whom she made it.
She spent her entire career correcting people who called her Alice.
