Our Story / Staff / Mary Walsh

Mary WALSH

PROJECT MANAGER ADMINISTRATOR

At uni, Mary Walsh studied to be a theatre director. Her professional experience, however, has been cultivated across film, television, theatre, and public art – from development to delivery, scripted and factual, for networks, non-profits, independent producers, and big-budget features. Steady across all these roles (and years) is Mary’s deep commitment to the transformative power of storytelling.

Story development is Mary’s happy place. Championing creative talent and advocating for fresh, bold narratives from unexpected voices is an important dimension in all her work. She loves working with writers and producers and collaborating to facilitate their success – seeing their stories move from page to screen or stage is a thrill that never gets old!  Mary is excited to join the Word Travels team as one of their Project Managers.
