Kathryn Tucker is an American film producer and entrepreneur based in New York City. She is the winner of the Independent Spirit John Cassavetes Award for The Station Agent (2003)[1] and founder of the RedRover social network.[2]

She graduated cum laude with a degree in philosophy from Tulane University and won a Thomas J. Watson Fellowship in 1993 and 1994.[3] After co-producing a number of movies for SenArt Films in the early 2000s, she developed RedRover as an event planning and social media app aimed at parents.[4]
