Stephanie Smith is a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps, having served for 27 years as an International lawyer and a Commanding Officer.  After retiring from the Marine Corps, she taught high school in Baltimore, MD for five years.  Proving that fact really is fancier than fiction, she decided to pursue a dream of documentary filmmaking.  After getting a graduate certificate in Documentary Filmmaking from George Washington University, she is currently pursuing an MFA in Film and Media Studies at American University.  She hopes to make documentaries with subjects that have political, cultural and social impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
