Director Biography - Jeanette Greenwood

Jeanette Greenwood is an international award-winning writer, director, producer, and businesswoman native of Fort Worth, TX.

Jeanette started telling stories and writing them down at the age of 5. She always had a vivid imagination and loved entertaining.

She participated in performing arts throughout school and college. In college, when her instructor compared her poetry to Maya Angelou's, she realized she had a unique gift for writing.

Growing up in the 1970s and 1980s, there weren't many people who looked like her who worked in front and behind the scenes in the industry, so she took other career paths that her high school mentors felt made sense to them.

African Americans were not making money in this industry, so being a teacher would probably be her best bet. She listened to her counselors and obtained three degrees: an Associate of Arts, a Bachelor of Science in Marketing, and a Master of Arts in Education. However, after doing all of this, she did not feel complete.

After obtaining three degrees unrelated to her true passion, she returned to what she loved: storytelling and film.

In 2020, she rebranded her 11-year-old NPO to Ladies in Film & Television and opened JG STUDIOS COMPANY full-time to her clients. Jeanette is the founder of the Texas Indie Filmmaker Awards, which celebrated its 2nd Annual event on March 30, 2024!
