Thank you for subscribing to our channel! ‪@malaprops‬ Offering fresh insight into the Kennedy assassination and a vivid picture of women in midcentury intelligence, A Woman I Know brings to life the astonishing duplicities of the Cold War intelligence game, a world where code names and hidden identities were the lifeblood of spies bent on seeking advantage by any means necessary. Mary Haverstick: Director. Screenwriter. Cinematographer. Author. ​Few women have directed multiple feature films. Mary is directing her fifth. After discovering the joys of telling stories on super8 film in second grade, Mary moved on to direct Oscar winner Marcia Gay Harden and Tony winner Marian Seldes in HOME (2009), Liam Neeson in THE LAST HORSEMEN OF NEW YORK (2018), and worked with Alan Alda in commercial filming (2020). ​​​​In an era when few women did so, Mary blazed the trail by taking on cinematography and editing on all of her features, films she also wrote. The New York Times said HOME was"beautifully acted," and several reviewers felt Harden's performance was worthy of Oscar consideration. Documentary has now captured Mary's fancy, and she is currently filming the turbulent political landscape of her home state for her upcoming feature TIPPING POINT PA.​In spite of her interest in the craft's technical aspects, Mary has always understood the importance of story. That's why, when a biopic she pursued stumbled onto historically significant information, she segued into a research project and pivoted to writing a book, A WOMAN I KNOW (Crown Publishing) which made Barnes and Noble's Best Literary Nonfiction list for 2023. Patricia Furnish holds a Ph.D. in modern Native American history from the University of Oklahoma, where she studied the Society of American Indians and their political activism for U.S. citizenship for all Native peoples during the Progressive Era. She also has an MFA in documentary film and an MA in Spanish language and literature. Patricia hosts two book clubs at Malaprop's: the Notorious HBC and Crime and Politics.
