Very surprised and flattered to say the lovely people at FILM DEBATE have featured me as one of their "5 Upcoming Female Directors to get Excited About"
Other directors on the list include Desiree Akhavan (Appropriate Behaviour), Daisy Jacobs (Oscar-nominated short The Bigger Picture), Nichola Wong (Skinship) and Maybe Forbes (Infinitely Polar Bear).

And here are the nice words they gone and said about me:
Kate Herron
Both a writer and a director, Herron is a UK based director with an eye for surreal yet human comedy. With a prolific amount of shorts under her belt, she has won many awards around festival circuits, been featured in the likes of Marie Claire and Film4, and her work bounds to different levels of greatness. Able to astutely gift her work with characters that feel wholly real, she is also able to translate funny and rambunctious tales in great cinematic ways. Quirky, and with an edge of humanity to them, Herron has a keen eye for what makes great comedy and, hopefully, will be working on a feature soon.
