"I always have the feeling that someone else ought to be doing this, and I wonder why it is that I'm the one that's doing it. But no one else is doing it."Filmmaker, writer, Margaret Hixon has produced two documentary films:
Old Believers, on the Russian community in Woodburn, Oregon; and
Ceremonio del Matrimonio, on an Hispanic wedding. She is the author of
Salote: Queen of Paradise. Hixon is an emigre from Portland, Oregon, where she was an instructor of college English.
"The most important thing has been to discover that whatever I felt like doing, in a very deep inner way, was valid, and to just do it. No matter what."
