About Emma

Emma Engelbrecht lives in Chicago with her 11 year old dachshund, Max, and began watching classic films, because her mom assumed if it was black and white that it was appropriate for a kid. Emma has since become aware that this is not always the case, but has nevertheless continued to watch and study films of all ages and genres. She hopes to take what she has learned from this experience and continue to grow as a film programmer.
