You know Nancy Meyers – famous American filmmaker (Father of the Bride, Something’s Gotta Give, It’s Complicated, and more).
Well, she was being given a Lifetime Achievement Honor from the Writers Guild Awards.
Quite luckily, I was recommended to help edit her intro package, that looks over her entire career. And it was so cool to sit there for multiple days, talking to her, hearing her amazing stories.
It was just so surreal to sit with this famous person and watch her kind of process her career right in front of me. Only the two of us in the room for a few days on end.
One fun story was Dustin Hoffman’s cameo in The Holiday happening because he happened to be there at a restaurant next door.
And yet again, this is why I need to blog in real-time because I’ve already forgotten some of the fun little things. But, she and I are still friendly! We text and stuff haha.
Anyway, great time. She’s really lovely!
