Theresa wrote and directed an animated film, The History of Glamour, which was selected for the 2000 Whitney Biennial. The film details the semi-autobiographical journey of a young woman from a small town to the glamour of New York; she ultimately rejects it all to return home to pursue her writing career.
Theresa's essays and film and literary criticism were published in Artforum, Slate, Salon and Bald Ego.
When she died, Theresa was working on the film Nick's Trip with her longtime boyfriend Blake.
