She has collaborated with director Laura Gabbert on IFC Film’s OTTOLENGHI AND THE CAKES OF VERSAILLES, director Tracy Droz Tragos on HBO’s Emmy-nominated ABORTION: STORIES WOMEN TELL, director Cecilia Peck on STARZ network's SEDUCED: INSIDE THE NXIVM CULT, HULU/FX's Emmy-nominated FRAMING BRITNEY SPEARS with NYTimes journalist and filmmaker Samantha Stark, on the award-winning indie drama RAISE YOUR HAND with director Jessica Rae, and on Sundance Now’s original series THIS CLOSE, the first TV show featuring deaf stories by deaf creators with director Andrew Ahn.
Judy owns a beagle mutt with exceptional personality named Bowie. Or rather, he owns her.
