I am especially grateful for her thoughtful insight and tireless dedication to my research and writing about films, most especially her guidance with this project on the women in Robert Altman’s films. I would have never completed this project without her unwavering commitment to my research and writing. I would also like to thank my committee members Dr. Genevieve West and Dr. Brian Fehler for providing invaluable comments and feedback on my work. I am especially grateful for the tough questions they asked because those questions made me dig deeper and think harder when I made revisions. Their comments and questions have also led me toward ideas for future research and writing, and that is a priceless contribution indeed. Finally, there are two additional professors I would like to thank for their contributions to my research, writing, and academic growth.
