Lynn True is a documentary director/producer and editor, and co-founder of True Walker Productions. Her feature documentaries include LUMO (PBS/P.O.V. 2007), about a young woman’s recovery from sexual violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and SUMMER PASTURE (PBS/Independent Lens 2012), which follows a nomad family in the mountains of Tibet. Called “enthralling” and made a Critic’s Pick by The New York Times, SUMMER PASTURE was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award and an IFP Gotham Award, and won a Peabody Award. Her last film, IN TRANSIT (Tribeca Film Festival 2015, Special Jury Prize), a collaboration with the late Albert Maysles, is a documentary portrait of America as seen through the stories of passengers aboard the country’s busiest long-distance train route. Lynn’s work has been supported by the Sundance Film Institute, IFP, Cinereach, National Endowment for the Arts, International Documentary Association, ITVS, Film Independent, and NYSCA, among others.
