Today’s #MotivationalMonday is best-known for her Today’s #MotivationalMonday is best-known for her off-screen work, masterminding magic from behind the camera. Today, we’re ensuring she’s center stage, as we shine our spotlight on actress, screenwriter & visionary director, Greta Gerwig! 🎥 Born in Sacramento, 1983, Greta began her journey, as many do, taking part in school productions, taking dance classes from a young age & expressing a desire to study musical theater. However, Gerwig’s path took a detour, and she went on to study English and Philosophy at Barnard College, where she ended up rooming with future actress & comedian Kate McKinnon! The two joined an improv group together, while Gerwig also wrote & acted in her own plays throughout college. 🎭 Given the overwhelming acclaim Gerwig has received for her recent projects, it seems absurd that, after her BA, Greta was rejected by several playwriting MFA programmes. Instead, she initially focused on acting, appearing in things like ‘Baghead’ and ‘Eden’. Gerwig began writing, directing & producing several of the projects she acted in, including co-writing multiple projects with her now-husband, Noah Baumbach, who has repeatedly said that Greta helped him revive his love for filmmaking with her “joy and light.” ✨✍️ That joy & light are evident in her work & success. Her solo directorial debut, ‘Lady Bird,’ was nominated for 5 Academy Awards. A semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story, Gerwig’s filmmaking & writing received glowing reviews for its rich warmth & perfect balance of personal depth with global relatability. 2 years later, ‘Little Women’ was lauded for its emotional depth, with Gerwig’s innovation revitalising the classic. And who could forget the box office hit that was ‘Barbie’ in 2023? Critics praised the script for blending satire & social commentary to explore such important themes & audiences embraced Gerwig's vision of modern sisterhood. 🩷 Whether on screen or behind the camera, Greta Gerwig has shown that even if paths change or you face tough rejections, pursuing your craft with love & dedication can help you overcome those setbacks & you’ll be able to share your own light and joy to inspire others. 🫶 #WomenInTheArts #LAWTF
