S05E15: Audrea Topps Harjo: Master of Chaos
From the moment she learned to read, Audrea Topps Harjo has
been a creator, first turning words into worlds in her mind,
and then sharing those stories she loved so much with her
family as a performer. Her passion led her to filmmaking in
various forms, from telling her own stories in her own voice
as a director, to helping other creators bring their visions
to life.
A skilled problem solver with a knack for breaking down
complicated problems and navigating complex work environments,
Audrea has made a name for herself as someone you can turn to
when you need help, be it setting up something new or stepping
in to bring teams into alignment.
From Washington, DC, to LA, New Zealand and back, Audrea has
not only worked everywhere but she’s also worked with everyone
and in our conversation, she shares insights into her career,
from the early days of working at Sony Pictures Imageworks to
adventures at Electronic Arts and Lightstorm
Entertainment. Along the way, she discusses culture shock,
“otherness,” and how taking risks has been a cornerstone of
her career.
