SFAI & NYU Films 1976-82

Fresh out of film school at New York University, a twenty-two year old in a miniskirt who had grown up in Cincinnati, I stepped behind the camera to write, direct, and produce movies in Hollywood.

Bachelorette Pad


"I knew Anita as a filmmaker. Most of the assistants in those days were from, what we called it a hundred years ago, the secretarial pool. Whereas Anita was a creative person who made a little movie called 'Bachelorette Pad' that I thought was terrific.

-Norman Stephens, Television Executive/Producer

Modern Girls

Before I was given my shot to direct, I was pitching my kitschy girly film projects all over town. My way-out concept, "Party Girls," was inspired by a popular 1965 teen girl game called Mystery Date. The idea of a game come to life, was retitled "Modern Girls" and became the story of my life in LA going to clubs.

Get Tux'd

In 1987, "Get Tux’d" was Ice-T’s first film role. He played Fab 5 Fishy, the ladies’ man, created for Fab 5 Freddy, who could not make it to Los Angeles for the shoot. A spoof on the 1965 film, "The Nutty Professor," starring Jerry Lewis, the short showcased my directing which led to my Hollywood directorial debut.

Assault of the Killer Bimbos

"Acting in 'Assault of the Killer Bimbos,' we had no idea what a cult classic this would become. Anita really was one of the first street-hustler filmmakers. Back in the day, there were few opportunities for women. So, Anita just kicked the door down to make the films she wanted to make. Campy, stylized, and slightly saucy."

-Nick Cassavetes, actor, director, writer

Sin in the Suburbs 1993


Inspired by the 1964 film, 'Sin in the Suburbs,' about a secret sex club, I pitched a fantasy project about a time-traveling go-go dancer who grants sexy wishes to Charles Band at Empire pictures. Charlie created an off-shoot erotic series and I was willing to do just about anything to make another movie.
