Greta Gerwig, Movie Director

By Carla Mooney

Greta Gerwig discovered her love of movies as a college student. After graduating, she began acting in low-budget films. She also started writing her own scripts. By 2013, she had written her first solo script. Four years later, this screenplay became the movie Lady Bird. Gerwig also directed the film, which was nominated for several awards. She returned to the director's chair again in 2019 with a new version of the classic Little Women. But it was Barbie that made Gerwig one of the most famous directors in the world today. The film earned an astounding $1.4 billion by the end of 2023. Part of the Women Blazing the Trail series, Greta Gerwig, Movie Director tells the story of how a young woman from Sacramento, California, became one of the most successful movie directors in history.
