Holly is originally from Oneida, Wisconsin, just outside of Green Bay. She grew up eating cheese curds, watching documentaries on PBS, earning Girl Scout Badges, drinking kiddie cocktails at supper clubs, and catching large-mouth bass to mount on her bedroom wall.
Holly's love for documentaries brought her to Chicago where she earned a degree from Columbia College in film and video concentrating in documentary production. While living there she realized how much she missed Wisconsin culture and lifestyle. In 2009 she decided to make a documentary exploring the one of her favorite aspects of that unique culture - Wisconsin supper clubs. It has been a long and challenging six years to make this documentary, but Holly is happy to be bringing the story of the Wisconsin supper club to the screen.
Holly currently works as a history producer with Wisconsin Public Television.
