Directing

Corinne was in the Graduate Film program at NYU, where she directed three short films, and then moved on to the Graduate Film program at the American Film Institute in Los Angeles. As a directing fellow at AFI, Corinne wrote and directed three thirty-minute films.

Corinne wrote, directed, and appears in her feature-length documentary film, Safer in Silence. It was edited by Polish Academy Award winner, Milenia Fiedler. Containing footage she shot in Brazil, Poland, France, Portugal, and the U.S, the film follows Corinne’s search for the truth of her family’s hidden past, and their escape from Poland in the years before and during World War II. Safer in Silence has been an “Official Selection” in over fifteen international film festivals, and has received a number of awards, including “Best Story,” at the East Europe International Film Festival.

She authored the book, The Road to Cali: A Journey to Adoption, and developed and performed a one-woman show, Abandoned, based upon her book. She has written a full-length play, The Sun Shines East, which was initially developed at the Actors Studio and then received its premier production in New York City.
