Anna Agostino
I have been interested in film and travel ever since I can remember. I was born in Ischia,a resplendent Italian island, Italy, whose culture has been influenced greatly by the once occupancy civilizations of the Greeks, Romans, Phoenicians, and Spanish. I grew up among Northern Europeans, mostly German, as well as American tourists, and have always been fascinated by the unique gifts each culture adds. I have studied many languages (Ancient Greek, Clasical Latin, Sanskrit), I am fluent in several (Italian,
English, French, German), I am currently studying Spanish, and have even done a workshop in Quechua.
I am the daughter of pedagogue/social worker and a teacher and have always been interested in education, community service, and storytelling. I studied acting at the Lee Strasberg Institute in London and have lived in Paris, where I attended film and photograhy classes at the Cin̮'̩matḫ'̬que Fran̮'̤aise. I moved to the United States to attend Virginia Commonwealth University where I created my own major by combining filmmaking, film studies, and photograhy in addition to a curriculum filled with many performing arts classes.
I moved to New York City in 1997 where I started a career in film and television production working in all different areas of the business, including film distribution. I was the first Print Traffic
Coordinator at Anthology Film Archives and Assistant Curator to the poet and filmmaker, Jonas Mekas. I have worked as a producer at the Italian American Institute, John D. Calandra, Queens College of the City University of New York on the program Italics about the Italian-American experience. I have also worked in
newscasting at RAI, the Italian state television in NYC, as well as working on many other productions. I hold several certifications as a yoga teacher, a profession I practiced successfully for many
