TV Cooking Show Pioneer Julia Child feat. Julie Cohen

Cynthia Bemis Abrams sits down with Oscar-nominated documentary  director Julie Cohen to explore her career in network TV journalism and  filmmaking. The conversation covers Cohen’s path to power as a  storyteller, highlighting her work on films about Pauli Murray, Ruth  Bader Ginsburg, and Julia Child.
 

Cohen shares insights into her acclaimed projects, including: 

  • RBG (2018): The documentary about Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, which gained widespread recognition.
  • My Name is Pauli Murray (2021): A film on the groundbreaking but lesser-known civil rights activist and attorney.
  • Every Body (2023): A documentary about the intersex rights movement and personal narratives.

 The episode also highlights Julia Child’s pioneering influence on television and women’s roles in professional kitchens. Cohen discusses Child’s legacy as a feminist figure and the impact of her political activism, particularly regarding reproductive rights and HIV/AIDS awareness. Julie promotes her latest documentary, The Path Forward (2024).
