ABOUT
With roots in journalism (New York Times), Ellen became involved in producing Broadway and off-Broadway plays such as The Woodsman, and Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson. She has produced several plays at Guild Hall, East Hampton, New York, including All My Sons, Uncle Vanya, and The Cripple of Innishmaan. In addition, Ellen served as an associate producer on the TV series, The Accidental Wolf, for which Kelli O’Hara earned an Emmy nomination. She also helped spearhead the adaption and development of a short story, The Killings, into the film In the Bedroom, earning Sissy Spacek an Academy award for Best Actress.
Ellen was awarded the rights from Robert David Lion Gardiner to tell his family’s story, and after spending many years with it, and doing due diligence on research, she has just completed the screenplay.
She is also the supporting sponsor for the East Coast Premiere of the Hillary Clinton/Jennifer Lawrence documentary ‘Zurawski v. Texas,’ which follows one of the first major court cases in Texas after the overturning of Roe v. Wade. The film opened on the East Coast at the 2024 Hampton International Film Festival (HIFF) where at the conclusion of the festival (with over 180 films shown), it received an award from the Artemis Rising Foundation for Social Impact.
Ellen “Lily” Myers is dedicated to telling the stories that need to be told in film, which she believes is our most powerful medium.
