Ellen Fine

August 30, 2017 By Ethan Leave a Comment

Episode 040 – “Growing Up Without Mom, Finding Your Own Path, and Editing In A Boys World” – Film and TV editor Ellen Fine talks about her early life and how she found her way without her mom around to guide her, how she decided to be a stay at home mom and raise her son, and how the creativity of her youth came back many years later to manifest in a career as a film editor. We talk about working with positive male bosses, how to work with your spouse, and how she’s found a way to stand out in a male dominated part of the entertainment industry. It’s a great conversation that speaks to the resilience of children, how creating your own path can be rewarding and how finding an ally who recognizes your talent can make a job much more rewarding.
