Biography
Beth Mickle is a production designer. Raised in Douglassville, Pennsylvania, she began her creative journey making short films with her brother, director Jim Mickle. She later moved to New York to study at Columbia University, where she continued collaborating on Jim’s NYU projects. Mickle gained early recognition through her collaboration with directors Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden on Half Nelson, which earned Ryan Gosling an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor. In 2009, she teamed up with director Nicolas Winding Refn for Drive, earning an Art Directors Guild nomination for Excellence in Production Design. Their partnership continued with Only God Forgives, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in 2013. She reunited with Gosling on his directorial debut, Lost River, also a Cannes selection. She has since brought her design expertise to high-profile films, including Focus, 2 Guns, and Arbitrage. On television, she worked on the first season of HBO’s The Deuce, created by David Simon and George Pelecanos. Her accolades include a BAFTA nomination for An Englishman in New York, recognition in Glamour magazine’s “Under 35” women in film to watch, and inclusion in Variety’s Below-the-Line Impact Report in 2013. With a strong international portfolio, Mickle has worked on locations across Argentina, Russia, Thailand, the Dominican Republic, and Europe. She resides in Hudson, New York, with her partner, fellow production designer Russell Barnes, and continues collaborating creatively with her brother. Jasan Pagni represents Mickle at WME.
