- Alice Guy. Widely considered the first female film director, Guy is also credited with helming one of the first narrative films, an 1896 short called “The Cabbage Fairy.”
- Lois Weber. A woman of many interests, Weber was a street evangelist and musician before she turned to acting and filmmaking. In 1908, she began her directing career at American Gaumont Chronophone, where fellow filmmaking pioneer Alice Guy-Blaché and her husband were then ensconced.
- Lotte Reiniger. Born and raised in Germany, Reiniger pioneered the use of silhouette animation, directing one of the first feature-length animated films, the 1926 release “The Adventures of Prince Achmed,” with this technique.
- Dorothy Arzner. Arzner grew up in Hollywood and began typing scripts before working her way up to helming “Women’s Fashions” for Paramount in 1927. While directing the studio’s first talkie, “The Wild Party,” she improvised a boom microphone for silent star Clara Bow, who was nervous about speaking on camera.
- The Girl Spy Before Vicksburg. Sidney Olcott & Gene Gauntier, US 1910. Although Sidney Olcott is traditionally listed as the sole director, we need to remember that when the film was made, moving picture work was highly collaborative and screen credits did not yet appear, so advancing Gene Gauntier under the category of ‘director’ of any of her Kalem Company films is intended to challenge assumptions about early cinema ‘job’ descriptions.
- Suspense. Lois Weber & Phillips Smalley, US 1913. The techniques designed to create suspense in thrillers – as used, for instance, by Alfred Hitchcock – were developed in this short film.
- The Ocean Waif. Alice Guy-Blaché, US 1916. Where Alice Guy-Blaché’s status as a film pioneer is acknowledged, she is credited with directing the first narrative film, La Fée aux choux, in 1896.
- The Girl in Tails. Karin Swanström, Sweden 1926. Swanström was a Swedish actress, director and later film studio executive who eventually discovered Ingrid Bergman.

Mar 8, 2022 · With diversity quotas implemented by most distributors and film organisations to improve the representation of women in front of and behind the camera, there’s still a long way to go to achieve an equal split of the genders in film and television crew. In 2021, Women and Hollywood found that only 17% of the 250 highest-grossing films were ...
