Remembering our friend Lisa Gewirtz
We are deeply saddened by the passing of our dear friend and team member, Lisa Gewirtz. Lisa loved connecting and helping others. By combining that passion with her superior knowledge of the Production Accounting industry, she helped further the careers of thousands of people who are among the many who knew and loved her. A true matchmaker in every way, she was a self described “professional relationship creator.” Above all else, she wanted to have a positive impact.
“I always knew that if I could help people in the Entertainment Production Accounting world, and leave the industry a little better than when I started, I would have fulfilled one of my life’s missions,” Lisa said in January when we announced her new role at Extreme Reach.
