Jennifer Reeder is an American independent filmmaker based in the Midwest. For much of her early career, she specialized in short, wordless videos of Midwestern American life and created the controversial White Trash Girl series, which chronicled a "swirling morass of filth."
Reeder has made a few feature films, such as Accidents at Home and How They Happen and Tiny Plastic Rainbow; and her more recent short films like A Million Miles Away and Blood Below the Skin are fictional narratives that chronicle and celebrate the lives of teenage girls. Her work is primarily Feminist in nature and she has said that she considers her work "to be a form of activism—both social and artistic."
