Zoé Cassavetes
Zoé Cassavetes was inducted into movies early, with a cameo as an infant in her father John Cassavetes’s movie Minnie and Moskowitz. Her debut as a writer and director came in 2000, when her short, Men Make Women Crazy Theory, premiered at the Sundance Festival. In 2007, she followed up with her first full-length feature, Broken English, starring her mother, Gena Rowlands, and Parker Posey, which won the Jury Award for Best First Film at the Philadelphia Film Festival. Cassavetes’ photographs have appeared in The New York Times Magazine, Elle, Madame Figaro, Italian Glamour, and Liberation, and her commercial credits include spots for Anna Sui, Disneyland Paris and Dom Pérignon. Her new feature is in the works, to be shot this year. Born in Los Angeles, Cassavetes currently lives in Paris.
