Marcia Nasatir
First Woman to Serve as a VP Production at a Hollywood Studio
Marcia Nasatir is a literary agent who became the first woman ever to serve as a vice president of production in Hollywood. She is known for developing "Vertical Limit" (2000), "The Big Chill" (1983) and "Hamburger Hill" (1987).
Nasatir was born in San Antonio, Texas. Before her career as a Hollywood producer, she worked as a secretary at an advertising firm in the '60s. While working there, Nasatir was mistreated and eventually left her job. Afterward, she became a book publisher and story editor. In 1969, Nasatir moved west to begin her career as a producer for United Artists, a production company. It wasn't until the early '80s that Nasatir became a production VP at Johnny Carson's production company. Since then, Nasatir has served as the executive producer for films such as "Ironweed" (1987) and "Death Defying Acts" (2007). In 1999, she won the Women in Film Crystal Award.
Most recently, Nasatir produced films "Elle" (2013) and "Your Good Friend" (2013).
