Place of birth?

[edit]

The article states that she was born "July 12, 1948 in Stuttgart, Germany" but also that she was born in Poland.

Awards won

[edit]

I added her James Beard award (2010) for Love Soup. This is a major award for cookbooks and I thought it should be noted on her page. Eam531 (talk) 22:20, 26 December 2010 (UTC)eam531[reply]

In 1973, Thomas worked with fellow film student Gregory Nava on his master's thesis film, a dramatic feature set in the Middle Ages, The Confessions of Amans. It was the beginning of a writing collaboration that has spanned more than two decades.

In 1984, Thomas co-wrote and produced El Norte with Nava directing. The film was a critical success. Thomas and Nava were nominated for an Academy Award and the film collected honors at various film festivals. In 1995, it was elected to the National Film Registry for the Library of Congress.

Thomas produced A Time of Destiny for Columbia Pictures in 1988 and worked for the studio on a few writing jobs.

She returned to the independent film world in 1995 with My Family, a multi-generational Mexican-American family story set in East Los Angeles which Thomas co-wrote and produced.
