Along with Matt, Kathryn recently produced a feature-length documentary, Burn on the Bayou that can currently be seen on The Documentary Channel. She produced the feature film Two Coyotes and assisted in securing the financing for the independent feature film Depths of Grace. In addition to producing many short films she was also a principal producer of the award winning and critically acclaimed Los Angeles theater production of the classic A Clockwork Orange.
