Kim Gehrig is a director known for her refreshing combination of honesty and wit. She tells stories that resonate with universal human truths, while also incorporating inventive technical ideas.

Her recent film for Apple, ‘The Greatest,’ challenged common stereotypes about people with disabilities. Her iconic commercial for Libresse, ‘Viva La Vulva,’ received praise for its humorous and liberated portrayal of female anatomy. Gehrig's music video for Chaka Khan's ‘Like Sugar,’ on the other hand, has become a dance classic. She has also recently directed an episode of the Apple+ series, ‘Roar,’ starring Nicole Kidman.

Gehrig’s culture-shaping impact on filmmaking has not gone unnoticed. Gehrig is the 2nd woman ever to win the DGA Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Commercials, being consecutively awarded in 2022 and 2023. Her films have won a plethora of awards including Cannes Lions, D&AD pencils, UKMVA's and British Arrows, where Kim was honoured with the coveted Fellowship Award in 2023.

Born in Australia, she studied at Central Saint Martins in London, and currently splits her time between Los Angeles and London.
