Robyn L. Coburn has been a theater set, lighting and costume designer, and a production designer of independent films. She has worked in the arts and entertainment for 40 years. When not helping people with their job search, she makes textile art dolls and writes screenplays, crafty how-to's and musings on creativity, mindful parenting and alternative education.
Her mission is to run businesses that help others succeed. To that end she offers done-for-you resume and cover letter services, writes how-to books, and soon will offer online courses about careers and (re)igniting your creativity. More information at Work In Production. She also volunteers with Chrysalis, helping low income folks craft resumes, apply to jobs, and learn interviewing skills.
Her upcoming books include the authorized biography of her father-in-law, screen legend and Oscar (R) winner James Coburn, more books about getting a job in entertainment, and (in progress) a middle grade novel series about a very unusual friendship.
She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, daughter, and the best cat in the world. She is available to speak or conduct group workshops about resumes, job hunting and working in film production.
