Books by Jürgen Vsych
The first autobiography of an American female filmmaker, The Woman Director tells how one woman succeeded in a male-dominated profession without selling out, succumbing to drugs, or going (too) mad. Possessing the enthusiasm of Auntie Mame, the daring of Amelia Earhart, the artistic rebelliousness of Beethoven and the fortitude of Seabiscuit, Vsych discovered just how low the glass ceiling is for women seeking the most coveted position on the set. The Woman Director, based on Vsych’s 17,256-paged diary, is a masterpiece of comic prose, celebrates a gladiatress who never batted a single eyelash at a man to make her films.
