Ava Marie DuVernay (born August 24, 1972) is an American director, screenwriter, film marketer, and film distributor. At the 2012 Sundance Film Festival, DuVernay won the Best Director Prize for her second feature film Middle of Nowhere, becoming the first African-American woman to win the award. For her work in Selma, DuVernay is the first black woman director to be nominated for a Golden Globe Award. With Selma, she is also the first black woman director to have their film nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture.
DuVernay was born in Long Beach, California, to mother Darlene Maye, an educator. DuVernay is the oldest of the five children. DuVernay grew up in Lynwood, California and Compton, California. DuVernay's father, Murray Maye, a businessman, is from Hayneville, Alabama, a small town between Montgomery and Selma. DuVernay spent summers in Hayneville. DuVernay said that these summers in Alabama influenced the making of Selma, as her father saw the Selma to Montgomery marches as a small child.

"If the person who gets to tell the story is always one kind of person, if the dominant images that we see throughout our lifetimes, our mothers’ lifetimes, our grandmothers’ lifetimes, have been dominated by one kind of person, and we take that?

Film director Ava DuVernay, nominated for a Golden Globe for the critically-acclaimed “Selma,” joined host Melissa Harris-Perry Sunday for an extensive interview.
The movie, "Selma," is getting plenty of attention for its portrayal of history, the relationship between Martin Luther King and President Lyndon Johnson -- and the way it showcases Dr. King's skills and choices as a political tactician and activist. What's less well-known is the extent to which director Ava DuVernay rewrote much of the script -- and that includes writing her own versions of Dr. King's speeches. As she explained to Gwen Ifill in our interview, DuVernay was not given permission to use the speeches through King's estate. They instead are connected with an upcoming film project by Steven Spielberg. Gwen asked DuVernay about the unique challenges of trying to capture the essence of iconic speeches without copying them.
Selma is a film that took a long time to get made, magically waiting, as movies do, for the right combination of people to come together, passionate, talented, and relentless enough to make it happen. Coming to the material just over a year ago, Ava DuVernay was the director who finally made it happen. She spoke to David Poland on the film's wide-release opening day about the process, the controversy, and the passion. Shot in Los Angeles, January 2015 Subscribe to DP/30 for more interviews: http://bit.ly/17Xg4Y1
SELMA is the story of a movement. The film chronicles the tumultuous three-month period in 1965, when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. led a dangerous campaign to secure equal voting rights in the face of violent opposition. The epic march from Selma to Montgomery culminated in President Johnson (Tom Wilkinson) signing the Voting Rights Act of 1965, one of the most significant victories for the civil rights movement. Director Ava DuVernay’s SELMA tells the real story of how the revered leader and visionary Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (David Oyelowo) and his brothers and sisters in the movement prompted change that forever altered history. Director Ava DuVernay Cast David Oyelowo, Tom Wilkinson, Cuba Gooding Jr., Alessandro Nivola, Giovanni Ribisi Common, Carmen Ejogo, Lorraine Toussaint, with Ti...
