yuko torihara

Hi! I'm Yuko.  Born in Tokyo, I spent my childhood growing up in Tokyo, London, Philadelphia and the suburbs of New Jersey - and found home in NYC.  I'm an actress, writer, musician and filmmaker.  My practice is amorphous, I've accepted that I am best when free of borders and categorization. 

​

My film projects have been supported by the Sundance Institute, The Jerome Foundation, The New Yorker Films, NYFA, NYSCA and the Hot Docs Deal Maker.  As an actor, I had a recurring role on Ryan Murphy’s Netflix series The Watcher and Audible’s Podcast Series The Space Within and a guest appearance on Elsbeth.  ​As a musician I go by TOOSDAY and perform around the city.

Please say hello!
