MEDIA APPEARANCES
"Emily's timeless films are about women standing up for themselves and each other. She speaks about her work in an accessible, inspiring way that makes everyone who's listening want to pick up a camera themselves."
Maria Alcon
Senior Producer, NBC
"Ms. Abt's films continue to delve into difficult and uneasy areas that most directors shy away from. Her stories confront real and urgent social issues, particularly the often unacknowledged sexual pressures on women, in a straightforward and tremendously honest way. Her work makes an important contribution to a national discussion about inequalities in our society."
Sarah Robbins
