Independent Film Producer Kim Waltrip returns to my podcast to discuss the Palm Springs Women in Film and Television (PSWIFT), a non-profit organization founded in 2001, dedicated to promoting its members, both men and women in the Entertainment, New Media and Creative arts community. Focused on education and bringing more production work to the Coachella Valley, PSWIFT is the 38th Chapter of Women in Film & Television International, reaching over 43 Chapters worldwide and over 10,000 members.
