Mimi Schiffman is a producer for Deep Look.
Prior to joining the Deep Look team she made hundreds of stories over more than a decade as a producer, director of photography and/or editor.
She's filmed lemurs finger painting (a favorite pastime of the amazing Duke Lemur Center inhabitants), stayed awake for 36 hours while trailing the first person with dwarfism to complete an Ironman (shout out to John Young, aka "The Hammer") and got to interview the late, great Anthony Bourdain.
Fun facts: Mimi's first job was weighing foraminifera - single cell organisms - in tiny foil cups, and she once got a river designated as “Wild and scenic.” She’s passionate about animals in general but very specifically her rescue dog, Henry. And her kid, Sierra and husband, Peter.
