Hannah’s passion for film and television began early and led her to graduate from the USC School of Cinema-Television in 1998. After working for a studio, a production company and an entertainment law firm, she completed her JD at Loyola Law School in 2006. After law school, she honed her skills as a business affairs executive at Lionsgate Television for 9 years handling both scripted and unscripted television development and production. Ready for a new challenge, Hannah moved into private practice at Stone, Meyer, Genow, Smelkinson & Binder in 2014. Since then, Hannah has had the opportunity to represent actors, writers, directors and producers across both film and television. Now a partner at the merged firm of Goodman, Genow, Schenkman, Smelkinson & Christopher since 2020, Hannah thrives on supporting and furthering the careers of her clients.
