Harriet is an RTS nominated, AIB and Lovie award-winning filmmaker and journalist. She makes thought-provoking documentaries that capture the human stories at the heart of global events. 

She has made films for the UK’s major broadcasters and premium brands, and has a track record for winning commissions, and securing sensitive access, whether that is to Shakespeare rehearsals in Kabul or the first treatment camp for teenagers with selective mutism in Manhattan. 

She is adept at sifting through complicated source material to construct a compelling narrative, and bearing witness to other people’s lives -- primarily women and children. 

She trained at the BBC and spent four years with the BAFTA-winning team at Economist Films, where she directed the team’s first multimedia investigation into school gun crime, which was shortlisted for an INMA award for visual storytelling, as well as an investigation into social mobility, which was shortlisted for a Wincott award, and an observational documentary about the Russian resistance, which won a Lovie.

In addition to filmmaking she writes narrative nonfiction. Her first book, Unspeakable: The Things We Cannot Say was published by Canongate and according to The Financial Times: ‘It is bracing to read a book that speaks so beautifully of the power of silence for both unhinging and healing. Ditto sex. Ditto Love.’ She was also shortlisted for the Manchester prize for fiction.
