Career


For three years, Holm was the film program director at the crowdfunding website Kickstarter, a role in which she helped potential filmmakers to source funding for their projects.[1] She was involved in curating films, writing editorials, overseeing events, and liaising with filmmakers who used the website.[2] She helped to organize and host the Kickstarter Film Festival.[3]

Holm was an associate producer of Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory (2011), the third film in a documentary series about the West Memphis Three by Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky. She produced Welcome to Pine Hill (2012), an independent drama film, and Sailing a Sinking Sea (2015), a documentary about the Moken people in Thailand and Burma.[2]

In 2011, Holm met filmmaker Gillian Robespierre, who at the time was creating a feature film, Obvious Child, based on a 2009 short film she had previously made. Holm agreed to produce the film and also worked with Robespierre to develop the script.[4] Part of the film's financing came from a Kickstarter campaign; Holm used her experience working there to help organize and promote the film's campaign.[1][5] The final film was released in 2014. Holm won the 2014 Sundance Film Festival Red Crown Producer's Award for her work.[6]

Holm and Robespierre co-wrote the film Landline, which premiered at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival.[7] They have also co-written and executive produced a television pilot for FX. The show is about two filmmakers, played by Jenny Slate and Ari Graynor, who embark on a road trip together.[6]

In 2015, she was named one of Forbes magazine's "30 Under 30" in the "Hollywood & Entertainment" category.[8] She is a member of the Independent Filmmaker Project and New York Women in Film & Television.[2]
