Great job on this, Paula!

Barbara seems like a great choice and you've clearly found a lot of good information to add.

Adding notable interns from her production company was a smart choice, it shows that she has other filmmakers' best interests at heart. It might be interesting to note something that one of those interns has done. Ex. Jesse Moss, director of Boys State, or whatever the most notable one is.

What is the relevance of her family criticizing the censorship of Paul Robeson? I may have missed something, but I don't see his connection to her in the original article. Is this a way to add more context about her family? More about her early life could be interesting, so I would suggest continuing to research her background as best as you can.

The personal life section of her Wikipedia is also only one sentence long and it just says who she married. Any other information about her personal life would be good to add to this section, anything you can find about where she lives, interests, affiliations would be good.

Her styles and themes sections brings up a few of her films and quotes about them, you could research how another film was received and add more to this section if you wanted.

I also noticed that American Dream was its full own section and the rest of her filmography is all put together. You could talk about one of her other important films in depth. It might also be a good idea to touch more on how her films were received by critics and audience.

2004 to the present is a huge window, perhaps it could be broken down into 2004-2012, 2012-present, or something like that?

I really liked the way whoever created my filmmaker's page laid out her filmography. It's in a table with the films, the year they were made, and the distributor, it brings more attention to her actual work and I think it's a great way to lay out the material.

Overall, very interesting topic. Can't wait to see your finished page!
