Anne Hamilton
Anne Hamilton got her start in film working on Terrence Malick's THE TREE OF LIFE, where, among other things, she shipped horseshoe crabs across the country on dry ice for a shot that never made it into the film. Her first short, DEATH ARTISTS, INC., a story about an Angel of Death crafting a surprise ending for a star politician, earned her a spot in the 2013-2014 American Film Institute’s Directing Workshop for Women. Hamilton's feature directorial debut, AMERICAN FABLE, premiered at the 2016 SXSW Film Festival and was acquired by IFC Midnight for a 2017 theatrical release. Hamilton studied at Yale Law School and worked on climate change and immigration issues. Although she no longer practices law, Hamilton still volunteers for The Innocence Project. Hamilton is from rural Wisconsin.
