Don't know who Victoria Woodhull is? She was once the most famous woman in America AND she is the subject of our next documentary!
Writer
Kelly Boyer Sagert will write our script and Director Peter Huston of
FilmAffects
will be handling the filming duties. Huston calls this "... a great
story." and Sagert says that she "... has been fascinated by
Victoria Woodhull for decades and is thrilled with the opportunity to
delve into Woodhull's rich and complex life." Victoria was the first woman to push her way onto the political stage. She ran a newspaper and became a stockbroker. As Victoria put it, I endeavor to make the most of everything. And thats a goal we all should try to achieve she sure did! Our storytelling program about this fascinating female was completed in 2019 and during the fall of 2023, we began filming the documentary! Kate Luke is our Victoria and Debra Rose tells the story of this remarkable Ohioan. Aspen Bott is our young Victoria. We are working for a premiere presentation in the fall of 2024.
