Maura Corey, ACE is a film/television editor and director based in Los Angeles. Raised in suburbs of Chicago, Maura's childhood dream was to live by Wrigley Field near her beloved Cubs. She achieved that dream while attending Columbia College where she received her MFA in film. With her degree in hand, she took the plunge and moved to Los Angeles to pursue her other dream, working in the Film & Television industry.
Maura started her editing career as an assistant editor in commercials and moved her way up into the editor's chair. After a year of working in commercials, the desire to tell stories over thirty seconds coupled with a love of improv comedy, she turned her editing talents to long format. She landed a show that combined those two elements and never looked back.
Throughout her career, Maura has worked on everything from comedy to drama to documentaries. She received 3 Emmy nominations for her work on The Oscars, 2 Eddie nominations. One for her work on the documentary series Beyond Scared Straight, and recently received an Eddie nomination for Best Single Camera Comedy Editing for Netflix Nobody Wants This. She has had the pleasure to edit projects for Warner Brothers, ABC and Amazon and looks forward to many more.
While she still loves the Chicago Cubs, she plans on staying in Los Angeles with her dog and her husband.
