As a seasoned TV and film producer, Jamie Zelermyer knows a good story when she hears one. She loves to delight the senses of viewers through sight and sound. In 2019, however, she began working on a podcast with her mom, Karen, weaving together the pieces of a cultural movement of the 1970s, with a true crime missing person’s case, and a deeply personal narrative of her own upbringing in West Virginia.
The podcast, I Was Never There, tells the story of Marsha Mudd Ferber’s disappearance. Jamie shares her thoughts about having this time with her mom and how it afforded each of them the opportunity to reflect on some complicated moments from Jamie’s childhood.
Jamie was determined to shine an authentic light on the Back to the Land movement of the 1970s that defined her earliest childhood memories. This period was about a lot more than long-haired, bell-bottom wearing hippies. Jamie tells us that the mother-daughter podcasting duo have been surprised at how much their dynamics and the natural tension between them has resonated with listeners.
