Filmmaker Kelly Reichardt, Artist in Residence at Bard, in Conversation with Alum Connor Williams ’18 for Interview Magazine

Kelly Reichardt, S. William Senfeld Artist in Residence at Bard College, spoke with Bard alum Connor Williams ’18 for a profile in Interview Magazine. “Reichardt’s body of work is remarkable for its consistency in quality and creative vision,” Williams writes. “She simply hasn’t made a film that wasn’t great.” In conversation with Williams, Reichardt discusses what she’s learned from her first film jobs years ago, her long-lasting collaborative friendships, and introducing students to her understanding of the cultural and cinematic canon. “I just wouldn’t really be connected with that generation if I didn’t teach,” she said. “I like being around young people and being in the flow of that conversation.”
