Erin produced the feature-length documentary LAS MARTHAS (PBS/Independent Lens), which The New York Times praised as “a striking alternative portrait of border-town life.” She also produced the feature-length thriller DARK MIRROR (IFC Films), which became IFC’s top-selling VOD release of all time.
She wrote and directed LA AMERICANITA (The American Girl), a short film loosely inspired by her experience growing up with a Cuban American stepfather, which won two Best Short Film awards.
She is currently working on several projects, including the feature-length documentary THEY DREAM, which she is producing for director William Caballero; the feature-length documentary I LOVE YOU MORE THAN MY LIFE, which she is producing for director Indira Somani; and the short narrative ROCKETSHIP, which she is producing for writer-director Iris Almaraz.
