Kelly Reichardt

Kelly Reichardt was born in Miami in 1964, the daughter of a policeman, a crime scene investigator, and of a mother who was a federal drug enforcement agent. She began with photography, graduated from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and around the age of thirty made a first feature in her native Florida. For lack of funding, twelve years separated it from the second: in the meantime she made short films on Super 8. Since then she has mostly shot in Oregon, often writes with Jon Raymond, and has taught at Bard College, in New York State, since 2006.
