About
Growing up in Shepherd’s Bush inspired Hero’s interest in multiculturalism and class. She received a distinction for her MA in Screenwriting at the London Film School after which she worked within the British film industry, assisting director Stephen Poliakoff and screenwriter Tony Grisoni. A passion for British social realism – in particular the films of Andrea Arnold and Shane Meadows – influenced Hero’s desire to write and direct. She received a bursary to study an MA in Filmmaking at the London Film School. She has also won the Philip Mottram Memorial Fund and the John Brabourne Award. Alongside her studies, she is a freelance reader for various film production companies.
