As a three-time BAFTA winner, 12-time Oscar ® nominee (first woman to be nominated in the "Best Sound" category), and 10-time CAS Award nominee, re-recording mixer Anna Behlmer has carved out shifting sonic worlds and rattled audiences in a career spanning across 30 years and over 150 projects. As an incredibly talented storyteller, this sound effects re-recording mixer has dominated in many genres and is known for such diverse titles as Blood Diamond, Moulin Rouge!, War of the Worlds, L.A. Confidential, and Braveheart. A true master in her field, this Hollywood native not only engages viewers with her soundscapes but garners loyalty from longtime collaborators. Additionally, Ms. Behlmer will be the first female recipient of our organization's highest accolade. I was honored to spend time with Anna to discover her wisdom of the field, how she navigated the waters to reach her level of success, and her example as an inspiration. b y K a r o l U r b a n C A S M P S E ANNA BEHLMER
