Directing Actors 25th Anniversary Edition—a complete updating and revision to Judith’s bestselling book—has arrived! Available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and mwp.com.
In September 2019 the audiobook version of the original edition of Directing Actors was released, with text lightly revised and updated—and read by Judith. It’s available at: Audible.com, Spotify, Apple, Google Play, Walmart (and Kobo), and a host of other outlets, including most libraries.
Judith's second book, The Film Director's Intuition, is available in paperback.
Both books are written from the point of view of film directors, and directors all over the world have come to rely on them. Many others have also found them helpful—screenwriters, actors, professionals in film, television, photography, theater—and really anyone who wants to live creatively. The tools and principles of the books are simple and practical, but more than that—readers tell me they find a deep contact with the magic and mystery of the creative process, and tools to access emotion. Many say the books' communication tools and storytelling principles offer lessons in life. I want anyone who reads my books to find support, confidence, self-respect, and joy in their work.
Directing Actors has been translated into Spanish, Iraqi Kurdish, Farsi, Estonian, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, German, Japanese, Finnish, Korean, Greek, and Polish.
