Susan Kandell

A native of the Bronx, Susan has lived in Dallas for over thirty years, but maintains her New York accent and is still a Yankee fan. In print, she is the film critic for the TJPost and contributes to IrishFilmCritic.com, SeligFilmNews.com, and BigFanBoy.com.

Susan is the co-founder and is currently the program director of the 3 Stars Cinema Film Series. In 1999 she co-founded 2Chicas Productions, which produced the award-winning documentary, ¡Salsa Caliente!. It has been screened in film festivals all over the country and was featured on WNET/13, the NY PBS affiliate TV station, with an introduction by Chita Rivera.

Susan was featured on page one of the Wall Street Journal, but thankfully not in handcuffs like Bernie Madoff.

She is currently the secretary of the North Texas Film Critics Association even though her penmanship is terrible.
