About this user

Virginia Williams is an Emmy Award-winning producer who has written, produced and directed a wide variety of long-form documentary specials and series for Discovery Channel, TLC, National Geographic, PBS, and other broadcasters.

Her company, New View Films, LLC, also produces behavior change campaigns, toolkits and advocacy media about important social and public health issues.

While working as a Peace Corps volunteer in Morocco, Virginia became interested in the reality vs. Western perception of womens' role in Islamic society. In June 2002, she made a trip to Afghanistan to investigate a film about Afghan womens rights activists role in rebuilding their country after the Taliban. What she found was hundreds of women had been resisting the Taliban and were now ready to keep fighting for a full and equal role in society. It was there at Afghanistan's Emergency Election that Virginia witnessed Massouda Jalal's first step up to the podium to announce her candidacy for president. She knew she had a story.
