Galt Niederhoffer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Galt Niederhoffer (born 1975) is an American movie producer and novelist.
Her movie credits as a producer include Prozac Nation (2001), Lonesome Jim (2005) and The Baxter (2005). She is one of the principals at Plum Pictures.
She is one of Victor Niederhoffer's seven children. Her autobiographical novel A Taxonomy of Barnacles (2005) about rivalry among six sisters has been described as "zany and witty" by some critics, "silly and contrived" by others. The book's surprise ending was mirrored in real life when her father had a seventh child, a son.
She lives in New York City with her husband James Strouse and daughter Magnolia. She is the daughter of hedge fund manager Victor Niederhoffer and Gail Niederhoffer. She attended The Chapin School and Harvard University.
