April sits down with Megan S. Smith, a Director/Writer/Producer who holds an M.S. in biology with a thesis in molecular genetics, and currently works as a documentary filmmaker and freelance investigative journalist in the areas of science and health. In 2016, Smith founded WayMark Productions, LLC, a company dedicated to bettering the lives of those with health afflictions.
Prior to that, she worked consecutive decades as a screenwriter, a Capitol Hill lobbyist for renewable energy, and a stage performer/recording artist. Smith was the first to report on the inaccuracy of Lyme disease testing for The Washington Post, and the government’s gross underreporting of this epidemic for her local paper.
Smith wrote, produced and directed her first short documentary, “bOObs: The War on Women’s Breasts,” which garnered international film festival awards. Starting October 2020, Smith’s feature film by the same name was distributed by Los Angeles-based Cinema Libre Studio. The film looks into different breast cancer screening tests for women.
Smith also wrote, produced and directed her second film, “A New Standard of Care: Alternative Cancer Therapies,” which investigates the area of non-conventional cancer therapies. The film is dedicated to her late husband who passed of cancer in 2009. Watch her film here: https://anewstandardofcare.com/
