My fight for a seat at the table: Netflix 'American Murder' Director Jenny Popplewell on her journey to feature doc success

The Imposter Club

Jenny Popplewell is a huge name in documentary, but in this incredibly humble and revealing conversation, she tells Kimberly of her fight to be taken seriously as a director and how she's only just believing of her own success. This is a strong contender for most-whiplash-inducing episode of noddingly relatable content for Producers and Directors - or anyone wanting their career to move on and feels they are not being heard. Jenny has such important anecdotes and valuable advice, we are very grateful for her wise words.
