A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Anna is a Director, Screenwriter, and Production Designer pursuing an MFA in Screenwriting and Directing at Columbia University. Two of her films, We Were Children and Sunflowers in Idaho, are in post-production (as of August 2023). She is developing a third short, The Years I've Hungered, which is set to shoot in June 2024. Anna's work covers a broad range of subjects and genres, but she's particularly drawn to queer narratives, historical pieces, and family dramas. Her first-ever TV Pilot, Texas, made it to the second round of the Austin Film Festival. Anna grew up in the mountains of Ketchum, Idaho. She has a Bachelor's Degree from Sarah Lawrence College where she studied creative writing and biology. She lives in New York City with her three cats.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
