HELEN HILL

DIRECTING

Helen Wingard Hill was an American animation filmmaker and social activist who lived in New Orleans, Louisiana.

When her final film, The Florestine Collection, was released in 2011, curators and critics described her as "one of the most well-regarded experimental animators of her generation." In the pre-dawn hours of January 4, 2007, Hill was murdered by a random intruder in her New Orleans home.
