The Den, the woman-owned bicoastal edit house launched last year, is expanding its presence on the East Coast with the addition of Kate Owen as partner/editor. She joins a talent roster which includes Andrew Ratzlaff, Christjan Jordan, Eric Alexander-Hughes, Katie Cali, and Ross Birchall.
The UK-born Owen started editing while in her teens, becoming an apprentice to the award-winning film editor Jim Bambrick at the age of 18. She moved to New York from London a few years later and has since edited an impressive array of projects ranging from fashion and beauty to lifestyle and entertainment. She’s worked with brands such as Gucci, Clinique, Maybelline, Victoria Beckham, Vogue, Adidas, Sony, Showtime, and Virgin Atlantic out of agencies like Mother, Saatchi&Saatchi, mcgarrybowen, Grey Worldwide, and Y&R. Owen has won multiple industry awards from the One Show, D&AD, BTAA, as well as a Gold Cannes Lions for her work on “The Man Who Walked Around the World” campaign for Johnnie Walker. Owen has also made a mark in the film world with the BAFTA-nominated short Turning and the Toronto Film Fest selection The Sweetest Sound.
Previous editorial house affiliations for Owen include Wax, Marshall Street Editors, Hooligan, and Whitehouse Post.
