Jennie Livingston
Jennie Livingston directed Paris is Burning, a documentary about a New York gay and transgendered Black and Latino fashion subculture that won the 1991 Sundance Grand Jury Prize [see list of Sundance Film Festival award winners ] and was a key film both in the emerging American independent film movement and in the nascent New Queer Cinema. Paris is Burning was one of Miramax Films's earliest successes, and helped pave the way for a current crop of commercially successful documentary films.
