Meg’s also edited Come Early Morning, directed by Joey Lauren Adams; A Decade Under the Influence (directors Richard LeGravense and Ted Demme), which played in the 2003 Sundance Documentary Competition; Wet Hot American Summer, which premiered at the 2001 Sundance Film Festival; and Heavy, staring Liv Tyler, which won the Special Director's Award at the 1995 Sundance Film Festival and showed in the Director's Fortnight of the 1995 Cannes Film Festival. She has also worked previously for Michael Moore, editing his documentary The Big One (Sundance 1997, Toronto 1996) as well as his Bravo television series, The Awful Truth.
