Executive producer Michel Waxman has joined Nonfiction Unlimited, creative production home to a roster of notable documentary directors working on commercial and branded projects.
Previously, Waxman was exec producer at Chelsea Pictures where she helmed the company’s L.A. office. Prior to Chelsea, Michel was an EP at Serial Pictures. Waxman’s experience includes running her own firm, MBW Represents, where she worked with Academy Films, Park Pictures, and Rattling Stick, among others.
Nonfiction partner Loretta Jeneski said of Waxman, “She is passionate about the work and has a deep history of developing creative opportunities for the companies and directors under her watch.”
Waxman will oversee all aspects of new business at Nonfiction.
The addition of Waxman comes as Nonfiction moves into 2019 with a renewed commitment to consistently bring the documentary genre’s next generation of nonfiction filmmakers to commercial projects. This new generation includes such company roster directors as Bing Liu who helmed Minding the Gap, and Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin, the filmmaker behind Free Solo. Both Minding the Gap and Free Solo have been lauded on the current festival and awards show circuits.
