Vivian Vanessa Kubrick (born August 5, 1960), also credited under the pseudonym Abigail Mead, is an American former film composer and director. She is the daughter of filmmaker Stanley Kubrick.

Early life

Vivian Vanessa Kubrick was born on August 5, 1960, to filmmaker Stanley Kubrick and German-born actress Christiane Kubrick (née Harlan). She had an elder sister, Anya, born April 6, 1959, and an elder half-sister, Katharina, from her mother's first marriage.[1]: 42 

Career

Kubrick made appearances in four of her father's films: as Dr. Floyd's daughter, nicknamed "Squirt", in 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968),[3][4] as a guest at Bryan's birthday party in Barry Lyndon (1975), as a guest on a ballroom couch in The Shining (1980), and as a news camera operator at the site of a mass grave depicted in Full Metal Jacket (1987).[5]: 227 [6]

At age 17, Kubrick directed and filmed a 35-minute documentary for the BBC, The Making of The Shining,[7][8] which was edited by Gordon Stainforth and had some footage removed by Stanley Kubrick.[5]: 215–216  After the release of the documentary in 1980, it became popular on the Kubrick fan newsgroup alt.movies.kubrick (amk)[9] and distributed on DVDs of The Shining.[10]

Kubrick supervised and composed the score to Full Metal Jacket,[11] using the pseudonym Abigail Mead.[12][13] In 1986, she shot footage for a documentary on the making of the film, but it was not completed.[14][15] Some of the footage was included in the 2001 documentary Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures.[15]

In October 2008, Kubrick attended a 40th anniversary screening of 2001: A Space Odyssey sponsored by the Jules Verne Society, along with actors Keir Dullea, Daniel Richter, and Malcolm McDowell. She accepted the Society's Legendaire Award on behalf of her father.[16]

In 2016, Kubrick published an open letter on Twitter denying the conspiracy theory that suggests her father helped fake the Apollo 11 Moon landing, referring to the allegation as a "grotesque lie".[17][18] In 2016, she also tweeted an open letter to Dr. Phil, after his famous 2016 interview with Shelley Duvall in which Duvall’s mental health symptoms were broadcast live.[19] Kubrick stated, addressing Dr Phil "Your exploitive use of Shelly Duvall is a form of LURID ENTERTAINMENT and is shameful".[20] She started a crowdfunding campaign for Duvall.[21][22]
