Lavinia Currier is a director, producer and screenwriter. “Passion in the Desert” was based on a nineteenth century Honore de Balzac story of the same name. The film was written, directed and produced by Currier in 1998. She began working on the project about seven years prior to that. In addition to coming up with funds and scouting exotic locales, Currier had a trainer purchase leopard cubs and raise them specifically for the film. Her diverse background includes theater direction, environmental work as well as directing a 1983 film called “Heart of the Garden.”
