Nat & Martha Sharpe have been a creative team for over a decade.
Nat was a film school graduate and Martha a storytelling
enthusiast. They fell in love while filming a musical parody of
"Beowulf" with their friends.
After another comedy and two documentaries, they started having
children. Focus shifted from art to survival. Together, they
learned to code, got off food stamps, and traveled around America
in an RV. Today, Nat and Martha homeschool their 5 kids and are
eager to explore alternative education, expand their comfort zones,
and—as always—make movies.
Nat & Martha were the first recipients of an O’Shaughnessy
Fellowship, which is a one-year program for ambitious people who
want to build something great. Fellows receive a $100,000 grant and
access to OSV’s network of founders, investors and experts to
support them in bringing their projects to life.
Nat & Martha are using their fellowship grant to study and make
documentary films of alternative childhood education schools.
