CONNECTED TO THE STARS
If you’re a fan of the Netflix series Ozark, you’ll be thrilled to learn that Queens has a special connection to the show. Alumna Wendy Price ’81 works as the associate producer and controller for the popular crime drama. Prior to her 40- year career in TV and film, she fondly recalls her time as a student on Queens’ campus.
Price was introduced to Queens through a connection
with late Professor Emeritus Charles Hadley. As a student, she quickly fell in love with Queens’ small atmosphere filled with big opportunities. From class president to president of Chi Omega, Price explained how Queens set her up for success, providing her the platform to jump into leadership roles and
grow. “Looking back, Queens was the best choice for me,” she said. and I think Dr. Hadley would be pretty proud of how I ended up in the industry I did.” After graduation and with a business degree in hand,
Price set out into the finance world. After reaching out to fellow Queens alumna Annette Smith Stilwell ’69, she got into casting. Over the past four decades, Price has worked her way up in the industry, freelancing with studios such as Universal and Warner Bros. and working on movies like Driving Miss Daisy, He’s Just Not That Into You and Draft Day. When asked what advice she would give current Queens
students or alumni looking to enter into television and film she said, “Start from the bottom and learn every aspect of every department. Explore all avenues, follow the paths you love the most, and really, just go for it. You’ll work long hours (I’m still working long hours!), but it will be rewarding.”
