Kris Swanberg Biography

Kris Swanberg is one of the most popular and richest Filmmaker who was born on November 11, 1980 in United States, United States.

In the late 2000s, Swanberg was laid off from her job as a teacher with Chicago Public Schools and while searching for a new job, she recalled receiving an ice cream maker as a wedding gift. She began experimenting with new flavors and started a new artisan small-batch ice cream business called “Nice Cream”, producing the dessert at Logan Square Kitchen, a shared community resource in Chicago. By 2010, demand had increased such that the ice cream was being sold in 18 local outlets, including specialty stores, farmer’s markets, and two Whole Foods locations.

In 2005, Swanberg coordinated The Future Filmmakers Festival, which showcases work from filmmakers under the age of 21.

Kris Swanberg (born Kristin Williams, November 11, 1980) is an American businesswoman, filmmaker, actress and former high school teacher living in Chicago, Illinois.

In late July, 2011, an inspector from Illinois Department of Public Health forced her to shut down operations until she either agreed to use a premade ice mix (as is used at Dairy Queen), or constructed her own manufacturing facility and purchased a commercial dairy license (intended to regulate major dairy producers such as Dean Foods). Although she submitted samples of her ice cream to labs for testing, which determined her bacterial levels were far lower than the state’s published allowable levels, the State of Illinois shut down Swanberg’s company until she purchases the large commercial equipment, and even if she uses pasteurized milk and boils all of her products together, she would still need to process it all through a commercial pasteurizer. Other small-batch ice cream makers in Illinois stated that they were concerned about the state coming for them next, particularly because they had invested significant sums in their businesses and could not afford to close.

Swanberg’s first feature film, It Was Great, But I Was Ready to Come Home, had its world premiere at the South by Southwest film festival in March 2009. Her second feature film Empire Builder premiered in 2012, starring Kate Lyn Sheil. Her third film, Unexpected, premiered at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival. It was released on July 24, 2015, by The Film Arcade. Her next film, I Used to Go Here, will star Gillian Jacobs and Jemaine Clement; Swanberg is credited as Kris Rey.
