Her 2023 short film Death And won multiple awards on the festival circuit, including recognition at the Lonely Wolf International Film Festival.[1]
As a producer, Morgenstern worked on the 2025 feature New Jack Fury, described by Gazettely as "a neon-soaked B-movie bliss, vibrant and kinetic," and featured by Yahoo Entertainment as "a high-energy homage to 1970s Blaxploitation."[2][3]
Earlier in her career, Morgenstern served as a producer on the short film Bumblebees, which was selected for the Tribeca Film Festival in 2022.[4][5]
In 2025, Screen Wexford profiled Morgenstern during her collaboration with Irish crews on two music videos filmed in Wexford.[6] The Wexford People (via Independent.ie) also covered her visit, describing the productions as "a merging of cinematic storytelling and music performance."[7]
Music
Under the stage name myah, Morgenstern released her debut album i don't know what i'm feeling in 2025. Blending cinematic pop, alt-rock, and electronic influences, the album serves as a concept record that traces emotional disorientation and renewal.
EARMILK praised her single "i'll be your light" as "an evocative listen," noting her "atmospheric instrumentation and sharp, expressive vocals."[8]
In an interview with Atwood Magazine, Morgenstern described her songwriting as "cinematic songs that feel like scenes," reflecting her background in film. The publication called the album "boldly dramatic" and "emotionally transparent," highlighting its exploration of identity, mental health, and self-discovery.[9]
Cleveland.com featured Morgenstern among its "15 artists you must listen to this week," placing her alongside Mariah Carey and Doja Cat.[10]
Public recognition
In 2024, Morgenstern received viral attention on TikTok for a personal storytelling series that resonated widely across social media. The story was later covered by BuzzFeed, which described her as a Los Angeles-based filmmaker and musician whose candid reflections "struck a chord with millions online."[11]
