This week, Leonora is totally thrilled to be joined by the wonderful filmmaker Foster Wilson! Foster is an award-winning director, filmmaker, and Emergence Award Recipient. She earned her BFA at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, where she studied for 3 years with the Atlantic Theater Company under the tutelage of David Mamet, Chris Bauer, Scott Zigler, and Mary McCann, among others. These two Atlantic alums discuss the ways their acting school and their technique continues to inform their work ethic and creative lives, the shadowing programs (AWD Short Film Initiative and Ryan Murphy Half Initiative among them) Foster has been involved with, and the ways they want to disrupt the film industry with compassionate and smart matriarchy! Foster is so warm and funny, and this is the loveliest conversation. Please check out Foster’s website, where you can watch several of her films: https://www.fosterwilson.com/ and follow her Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/thefosterwilson/
