Overview

Hollywood has seen the number of camerawomen quadruple in the past 15 years. Women Behind the Camera is the first book to offer an in-depth look at the lives of camerawomen and their struggles to succeed in a male-dominated field. Krasilovsky presents interviews with 23 camerawomen, most of whom are pioneers in Hollywood and whose experiences cover the full range of the Camera Department.

Synopsis

An inspiring look at a new generation of camerawomen, this collection of twenty-three interviews is the first in-depth study of the courageous women who first filmed on mountain tops, underwater, in war zones, and on Hollywood sets.
