Find inspiration and empowerment as you explore the life, career, and influences of Greta Gerwig.

The actor, writer, and director probably best known (at the moment) for the ground-breaking blockbuster film Barbie, Greta Gerwig is an icon to young women who hope to follow in her footsteps and pursue their own creative passions. But what has driven her to create such timely and socially conscious films, and what inspires her artistic vision?

Greta explores the filmmaker's life and career, including:

A deep dive into her filmography, including the four films she's directed, 12 she's written, and 26 she's acted in.

An exploration of what has influenced her career path and the places from which she draws inspiration, from classic literature (as seen in her adaptation of Little Women) to her own California girlhood (Lady Bird).

Greta's impact on independent cinema and her work to bring more women into the film industry.

Iconic quotes from Greta and her closest collaborators about her work, her ambitions, and what comes next for the celebrated filmmaker.

An intriguing account of where this talented filmmaker has been and where her future might take her, this is a must-have volume for every Greta Gerwig fan.
