I soon realized that theory wasn’t my medium, and I moved toward filmmaking and photography.” In Harvard, Greenfield continued her filmmaking classes under the guidance of veteran documentarian Robb Moss. She graduated in 1988 and was a co-director of the 25-minute film Once You’re in, about Irish illegal immigrants who resided in Boston.
