American filmmaker and authorWendy Sachs is an American filmmaker and author who is known for her books Fearless and Free and How She Really Does It, and for directing Surge (2020).
Career
Sachs obtained her B.A. in journalism from Northwestern University. While working as an associate producer at Dateline NBC, Sachs was mentored by Soraya Gage, whose part-time schedule was "revolutionary in the late 90s/early 2000s” for a senior producer. For her book How She Really Does It, Sachs interviewed over 100 women about balancing career and motherhood. Sachs's book Fearless and Free: How Smart Women Pivot and Relaunch Their Careers discussed "failing fast and learning from your failures". Her 2020 film Surge was "literally shot through a female lens", using only female cinematographers.
