Script Writer Announcement: Elle Russ

Adding to our growing team members for Headhunt Revisited is script writer for the documentary film, Elle Russ.   I met Elle many years ago at a conference and was impressed by her energy – physical and mental.  When we sat down, I told her the story of Caroline and Margaret.  Her reaction was nothing short of astonishment that these  two young women of the 1920s would take on such a dangerous journey to paint portraits.  Over the years, Elle has demonstrated her belief in the Headhunt Revisited goals.
