No. of Paragraph 14

A little over 15 years ago I had a crazy idea: to try and start a conversation asking where the women were in front of the camera and behind the scenes in Hollywood. I called my blog Women and Hollywood because to me, Hollywood is everywhere. My exploration grew into a calling that I never expected. It allowed me to travel across the globe speaking with others who were passionate about this issue. The work helped birth the Athena Film Festival, which is now a full-fledged teenager at thirteen years old.

Fifteen years later, the conversation is fully embedded in our culture and is covered by mainstream outlets. Women, some of whom got their start at Women and Hollywood, are working in a wide variety of roles across the industry. It was not too long ago that it was always a surprise when a series had a woman director as part of its season. Now, itโ€™s unacceptable if they donโ€™t. The work is not done, far from it, but in order to continue the revolution, evolution is necessary.

As of April 1, The Women and Hollywood blog will no longer be publishing original stories. We will keep the site live because it has become a great resource, particularly for students of the industry.

Have no fear: I will still be launching the truth bombs and amplifying womenโ€™s voices. But it will be in a different way. In Her Voice: A Women and Hollywood Podcast will launch in April and it will be a place where I will cover news and interview creatives. I am excited to get back to talking to the women who are effecting change and well as those whose creative visions are coming to our screens.
