Glass Mountain
Entertainment was founded by producer Dawn Fields in July of 2004.
Before creating Glass Mountain, Ms. Fields worked in development
and acquisitions for a medium sized production/distribution company
in Los Angeles where she has lived for almost five years. Originally
from Atlanta, Georgia, Ms. Fields began her career as a production
assistant working on large budget feature films that were shooting
in the southeast in the early 1990's. From there she moved up to
Assistant Director and Production Mangager on short-form projects
ranging from high profile commercials to music videos, shorts and
independent features. Bitten by the creative bug, Ms. Fields then
went on to write, produce and direct her own projects including
a dramatic short and an award-winning music video for Gospel R&B
artist Vickie Winans. After producing a regional commercial spot
for the Georgia Lottery, self-publishing a trade magazine for the
Atlanta film communtiy, and teaching seminars to beginning filmmakers,
Ms. Fields decided to make the move to Los Angeles in year 2000.
She is now concentrating exclusively on feature films and documentaries
and currently has several projects in development.
"This
documentary means a great deal to me because I myself have fallen
victim to the lure and glamour of Texas Hold Em Poker. It is my
desire to raise awareness about the pitfalls and dangers of this
game. Hopefully this will help save others from the struggle I went
through myself." -Dawn Fields |
