Make Your Own Break was mentioned in US News & World Report 


​Jennifer Lieberman – an actor, writer and filmmaker who earned an undergraduate degree in philosophy and English literature – got a writing-related degree instead of a film degree because she intended to use her writing skills when making movies. Regardless of an aspiring filmmaker's academic background, he or she will need an abundance of initiative, says Lieberman, the founder of "Make Your Own Break," an organization that helps independent creative professionals design their own career opportunities.

"For my experience, the people who have had the longevity and who have had the most success are the people who have taken the reins, created their own productions, created their own production companies and who are not waiting for anybody to give them a job," she says. "They give themselves work. They create their own work."
