The weekly podcast Media & Monuments features conversations with industry professionals speaking on a wide range of topics of interest to our region’s media makers.

I’ve started my own business and am about to embark on a historic journey that has been documented recently in The Washington Post. THAT is a direct result of my membership in WIFV.

Women in Film & Video (WIFV) provides educational and networking opportunities for screen-based media makers, celebrates women’s creative and technical achievements in media, and advocates for parity both in front of and behind the camera to ensure that all voices can be heard. A 501(c)(3) non-profit community benefit organization founded in 1979, WIFV is the premier professional resource for people who want successful media careers in the DC-metro region. Our resources, connections and advocacy support a vibrant, creative media community.
