Co-Founder / CEO
A billionaire scion of the Pritzer dynasty (Hyatt Hotels, Royal Caribbean), Pritzker cut her teeth making industrial films in the ’80s before co-founding diversified content company MWM (aka Madison Wells Media, originally known as Odd Lot Entertainment) in 2001. A prolific producer, the firm has credits aplenty, including acclaimed films such as 2010’s “Rabbit Hole,” starring Nicole Kidman; 2011’s “Drive,” with Ryan Gosling; and the Nat Geo anthology “Genius,” with 17 Emmy nominations over two seasons. On tap are a pair of fall releases — writer-director-star Edward Norton’s noir mystery “Motherless Brooklyn” and action-thriller “21 Bridges,” starring Chadwick Boseman — and it’s funded the Tony-winning musical “Hadestown,” the podcast “Voyage to the Stars” and the VR immersive experience “War Remains, which debuted at Tribeca 2019.
