From CWC/Corus

Miriam Manley has come from England to explore the vastness of Canada and the film and new media opportunities that it has to offer.

Back home Miriam was working in the production of web-based media for the TimesOnline website, prior to that she co-produced and worked on documentaries for the Community Channel, Maya Vision International and for UNICEF television in New York. She has also been involved in the running of key events in the women’s cultural and political calendar in the U.K., including organizing a series of seminars for women politicians in the U.K. Parliament and working for a female MP.

She is very excited that her position as line producer of the Interactive Project Lab and Women in the Director’s Chair combines many of her interests and allows her to pursue her main passion, making films. She is looking forward to being inspired by the beauty of the mountains, the politics of Alberta and Canada as a whole and, most of all, meeting a whole range of new people.
