Vanessa Caswill
Vanessa Caswill is an English director and writer of short films and television dramas.
Caswill directed BBC miniseries Thirteen (2016)[1][2] and Little Women (2017).[3][4] Little Women marked the first time in Angela Lansbury's career of nearly 80 years that she was directed by a woman. “It was a very intimate relationship with a director which I had never really encountered before... She was quite wonderful in her ability to come to us actors — not in a loud way, from a distance she would come and whisper in our ears. And in that way, she was able to impart very subtle things that otherwise perhaps as a woman she might not have wanted to, for everybody to hear. But for the actor to hear it was delightful and I loved working that way with her.”[5]
She directed the film Love at First Sight.[6]
