#219 - Julia Hart shares her personal odyssey from HS English teacher to screenwriter and feature film director. Rachel Brosnahan, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, and David Strathairn are just a few of the respected actors bringing her stories to life. In this in-studio conversation, Julia reveals how becoming a mother empowered her to step into the role of director and how motherhood influences the stories she tells. And Ellie shares an empowering matrilineal secret found in her grandmother’s locket. Also, we also discuss the importance of owning our stories as well as the sensitivities necessary in writing a character of another race. xx Ellie Knaus
