Roxana Spicer

ROXANA SPICER grew up in Netherhill, Saskatchewan, population 80. As a documentary filmmaker and former CBC investigative journalist, her award-winning work across Canada led to real change. She has pursued stories in remotest Ecuador, the Arabian Desert, and the North Sea; she has reported from a high-tech ocean dive ship, a nomadic Kyrgyz yurt, and made multiple trips to Russia during the “wild west” years following the fall of the Soviet Union. The most elusive interview subject over her forty-year career remained her own mother. Roxana lives in Toronto.
