Nara Garber is a documentary filmmaker who divides her time between directing, shooting, and editing, often wearing several hats on the same project. She currently directs and produces short-form documentaries for Carnegie Hall and has directed projects for Sotheby’s, Citigroup, Altria, The Point Foundation and the political satirists, Billionaires for Bush. Nara’s work as a DP has appeared on HBO (Making the Crooked Straight) and PBS (NOW with Bill Moyers), and her Best Cinematography award in the 2008 Asian American Film Lab’s 72 Hour Film Shootout is a testament to her ability to frame a shot with no sleep. In 2009, Nara toured military bases in Iraq while filming Susan Cohn Rockefeller’s Striking a Chord, and she heard first-hand from many of the men and women serving there that deployment is hardest on the families back home. Nara holds a BA from Harvard and an MFA from Columbia.
