Mairin Hart

As a writer, director and producer of short films and promotional and commercial videos, Los Angeles-based Mairin Hart craves nothing more than being on set and taking what’s in her mind and bringing it to life — whether that’s in a music video or a behind-the-scenes look at a brand. She feels that working hand-in-hand with her subjects is essential, a quality that’s seen in her film Transending (Mountainfilm 2020). The documentary follows the journey of Erin Parisi as she comes into her own identity as a transgender woman and trains for the Seven Summits in order to create awareness and visibility for the trans community.
