BOLD WORLD/REELNATION - Key Persons
After falling in love with the arts of photography and filmmaking while exploring the world as a child with her first 110 and Polaroid cameras, and as a young woman with her family's first VHS camera and tripod, filmmaker and visual artist Ruth Rachel Anderson-Avraham (née Yvonne Michele Anderson) studied film production at New York University while living on the Upper East Side and in Brooklyn and working with archival and documentary film in New York City in the late 90's.
As both a filmmaker and writer, Ms. Anderson-Avraham has worked primarily with non-fiction and historical fiction storytellers, and with those extraordinary people who generously give of their own lives in sharing their personal stories with them, internationally, most extensively in the Americas (including the United States), Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.
She is dedicated to the support of worthy causes, and particularly the building of bridges and the fostering of peace among the peoples of the larger Middle East.
