Julie Cohen, the next guest on the SOUNDS podcast with Tom Needham, is an Academy Award-nominated and Emmy-winning filmmaker known for her powerful documentaries. Her acclaimed film “RBG” (2018), co-directed with Betsy West, captures the extraordinary life of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. The documentary highlights Ginsburg’s unparalleled legal legacy and unexpected status as a pop culture icon, celebrating the quiet strength and determination that propelled her to the nation’s highest court.
RBG was an official selection at the Port Jefferson Documentary Film Series.
Cohen and West also directed “Julia” (2021), a look into the life of culinary trailblazer Julia Child, and “My Name is Pauli Murray” (2021), which explores the impact of a pivotal but often overlooked civil rights leader. In addition to these collaborative works, Cohen’s solo projects include “The Sturgeon Queens,” “American Veteran,” and “I Live to Sing,” all showcasing her dedication to telling compelling and authentic stories.
Before transitioning to documentary filmmaking, Cohen honed her storytelling as a producer for NBC News, an experience that influences her nuanced approach to creating impactful, real-life narratives.
