Tania Larsson Instagram – This is my love Razelle Benally graduating from NYU Tisch with her MFA this past month!
I’m extremely proud of her massive accomplishment not only did she survive the pendemic while in graduate school but she also had to work full time in two jobs as a writer on Dark Winds, and a director for the @showtime documentary series Murder in Big Horn while a full time student to be able to graduate.
She was nominated by her faculty with the honour to lead them during the salute ceremony as the banner bearer for the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television. She was also recognized in the speech of the president of her school during the ceremony and we screamed way too loud in joy when we heard her name out loud!
You can count on your fingers how many Indigenous people have graduated from this prestigious program and I’m so proud of her for honouring her gifts and working so hard for this accomplishment. I would also like to thank the faculty who saw her talents and pushed her to get even better!
Congratulations my love for graduating with the class of 2023 💜💜 #nyutisch #nyuclassof2023 | Posted on 01/Jun/2023 16:03:47
