Filmmaking and Moving Image Arts faculty member Beth Levinson has been nominated for her first Oscar Award for the documentary short, The Martha Mitchell Effect.
Produced by Levison and Judith Mizrachy and co-directed by Anne Alvergue and Debra McClutchy, The Martha Mitchell Effect is an archival documentary portrait of the unlikeliest of whistleblowers: Martha Mitchell, a Republican cabinet wife who was gaslighted by the Nixon Administration to keep her quiet.
Levison is an Emmy- and Peabody Award winning filmmaker and the founder of Hazel Pictures. Her most recent course at SLC, held in the fall semester, was "Producing for Film and Television."
