Biography

A Southern California native, Phillips began her career as a music journalist, working with author Danny Sugerman,[3] The Doors drummer John Densmore, William S. Burroughs, and Timothy Leary before moving into music video production at Propaganda Films, working with directors David Fincher, Michael Bay, Dominic Sena, and Mark Romanek. She teamed back up with Propaganda co-founder Sigurjón Sighvatsson at Palomar Pictures,[4] where she launched and executive produced the music video division, creating videos for Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Weezer, Eminem, U2 and Muse,[5] among many others. While at Palomar, Phillips oversaw the careers of various directors, including Marcos Siega, Joseph Kahn,[6][7] Gina Prince-Bythewood, Lance Bangs, and Nick Brandt.

Phillips worked as executive producer at Neal Moritz’s Original Film,[8] home to directors Larry Clark,[9] Randee St. Nicholas, and Gavin Bowden, and at A Band Apart, where she and Lawrence Bender launched a directors’ management division,[10] representing feature directors Quentin Tarantino, Tim Burton, Darren Aronofsky, John Landis, and Todd Solondz for music videos.

Phillips went on to form Lanette Phillips Management,[11][12] representing directors including Errol Morris, Ron Fricke, Jesse Dylan,[13] Dougal Wilson, Joel Schumacher, Keith Schofield,[14] Vincent Haycock, and Saman Kesh for music videos and branded content.

In 2008, Phillips was invited to Iceland by Sigurjón Sighvatsson and Anna Hildur of the Icelandic Music Export to speak on a panel at the IMX- You are in Control conference during the Iceland Airwaves music festival.[15] That same year, Phillips was asked to host an annual Icelandic music event in Los Angeles to introduce Icelandic artists to the film, TV, commercial, and music industries.[16]

The first annual event was held in her home in 2009 and co-hosted by Jónsi of Sigur Rós.[17] Performers included Haukur Heiðar Hauksson from Dikta, and Lay Low.[18] In 2010, Emiliana Torrini performed,[19][20] and Ólöf Arnalds appeared in 2011.

With a focus on purpose-driven films and social impact campaigns, she was supervising producer and curator for the Stand Up To Cancer organization's Stand Up On Demand fundraising campaign with Comcast in 2009.[22] In 2011, Phillips produced the short film, “Sabina,” for the Clinton Foundation which premiered at Bill Clinton’s 65th birthday and Decade of Difference Concert at the Hollywood Bowl.[23] Phillips also produced the Elizabeth Smart/Alicia Kozakiewicz public service announcement for “Not One More Child”[24] which first aired on Good Morning America when Smart was interviewed by George Stephanopoulos.[25]
