#128: Leslye Headland, Director, Screenwriter, Playwright

As a playwright, screenwriter and director Leslye Headland’s creative prowess knows no bounds. In her most recent project, she collaborated with Amy Poehler and Natasha Lyonne to create the Netflix series “Russian Doll,” which has received not only critical acclaim but 13 Emmy nominations this year. On this episode, she discusses the internal misogyny that exists in Hollywood culture, how to know when you are too comfortable in your career and what it’s like to be the only woman in the room in a male dominated industry. Plus, what it’s really like inside of a writer’s room and the surprising public figure she considers a role model.
