Interesting extract from a longer /Film interview with in-demand director Roxann Dawson.

I appreciate how she speaks with respect for the shows of the new era.

The little blurb shown on this post is wrong:

Roxann Dawson was an actor on Star Trek: Voyager before she became a TV director, although she's never actually directed a Star Trek episode.

She directed about 10% of all Enterprise episodes.

I thought she’d directed episodes of Voyager too.

Memory Alpha credits her with Voyager episodes ‘Riddles’ and ‘Workforce Part II’.

hit those fools with the knowledge

"With directing efforts on shows like "Voyager," "Enterprise," "Lost," "The Americans," and many more under her belt, she was most recently put in charge of two pivotal episodes of "Foundation" season 2, the Apple TV+ sci-fi series based on Isaac Asimov's novels."

I think they fixed the line and added the correct info now. That quote was from the article. Since the title says "new trek" I'm guessing they meant discovery/SNW/Picard as the trek the picked Foundation over to direct.

Wikipedia says she also directed 2 Voyager episodes.

Enterprise isn't Star Trek, confirmed! (I kid, I kid.)

[–] atlasraven31@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Enterprise is just a Quantum Leap episode.

[–] transwarp@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago

She directed episodes of both "Enterprise" and Star Trek: Enterprise", which each lasted two seasons. The stealth name change was surprising back then.

[–] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I was gonna say, I just finished Enterprise and she directed at least two that I recall.

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It even mentions directing enterprise in the article. Bad editing.
