Blyth Meier joined us to lead our marketing department in 2015 after doing that work for the Milwaukee Film Festival for the previous five years. While she made good use of her filmmaking degree at that job, here she has returned to her first love—books. As an undergraduate English major at the University of North Dakota, Blyth’s favorite time of year was the annual Writers Conference, which brought many of her soon-to-be favorite authors to the remote Northern Prairie. Blyth lives in the Riverwest neighborhood of Milwaukee with her family, where she takes photographs, makes films, tends her vegetable garden, cooks good food, and participates in the neighborhood’s annual 24-hour bike race.
