Carrie, longtime movie critic for The Philadelphia Inquirer, now contributes to Yahoo! Movies and The New York Times. A film historian with a masters degree in film from the University of California, San Diego, she teaches a popular course, “Mars and Venus at the Movies,” at the University of Pennsylvania. She is currently working on a documentary about Philadelphia’s role in the invention of movies. Recently she has hosted film discussion series at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the American Museum of Jewish History. She is an inveterate film festivalgoer who fell in love with movies in part because they introduced her to memorable landscapes, many of which are now threatened.
