Melody R. Herr

The first in her family to attend college, Melody was raised by her single mom three blocks north of 8 Mile. The borderline between Detroit and the suburbs, you probably know it as the street made famous by Eminem's biopic. Leaving Detroit behind to travel the world after college, Herr spent quite a few years living in both Japan and England, traveled to over 25 countries, as well as several US States. She is married with children, three to be exact. Two have made it successfully to adulthood; the verdict is still out on the teenager. A founding member of the Milwaukee Filmmaker Alliance, she runs a monthly screenwriter's group and helps to promote Milwaukee Women in Film. Additionally, Melody is a member of the LA-based Multi-Cultural Production Association which strives to promote and advocate for women, minorities, and veterans in all aspects of the film and entertainment industries
