Director, Classroom 4
Eden Wurmfeld is an Emmy-nominated fiction and documentary producer and director who is committed to ushering compelling characters and moving stories to the screen. As a filmmaker, Eden is not genre or subject driven; rather it is the heart, soul, and message of a particular story that give Eden the drive to bring a film to fruition.
Recent independent doc credits include Chasing Childhood (Abramorama) and The Big Scary “S” Word (Greenwich Entertainment). Previously, Eden produced the Netflix Original Saving Capitalism, featuring former Labor Secretary Robert Reich, which launched worldwide in 2017. Among her other documentary credits are No Impact Man (Sundance, Oscilloscope) Left on Purpose (Gunpowder and Steel), My So-Called Enemy (PBS) and Romeo Romeo (PBS).
Eden’s first documentary effort, the critically acclaimed ITVS Sunset Story, aired nationally on PBS Independent Lens in 2005 and won the jury award at the Tribeca Film Festival as well as the audience award at LAFF.
Eden is a member of AMPAS and the DGA—she is also a founding member of the Documentary Producers Alliance (DPA).
