Holly Ellis
Holly Lynn Ellis (she/her) is a writer and film and video producer. Her five feature films include the Sundance-selected Prairie Love and she's made countless videos and posts for parents and families on multiple pregnancy and parenting sites, including WhattoExpect.com and AChildGrows.com. Holly’s pregnancy and parenting approaches have been largely shaped by her three miscarriages and experiences of both primary and secondary infertility. She believes that by sharing these experiences openly, and seeking evidence-based advice, we can remove the stigma against fertility struggles and make the family-making journey easier for everyone. She lives in Brooklyn with her husband and two children.
