Christians in Cinema

Producer/Writer/Director - Karla Faye Tucker: Forevermore

Born in El Centro, California, Helen Gibson describes herself as a “border brat”. A typical day for Helen starts around 5:00 AM with Bible reading and meditation with the Lord. She cherishes that personal time as her days are very full and busy.

She currently works at AZTV, a locally owned/operated station in Phoenix that reaches more than 4 million homes in Arizona. Her job? Selling commercial time and building 30-minute shows, of which she has 14 right now. She works with national ministries and local pastors to place airtime on Sundays.

Her marriage to an Air Force fighter pilot (F16s) both earned her the nickname “Wheels” and gave her the background to develop a TV sitcom she’s currently pitching to networks. Based on the lives of military wives, “Pilot Point” is a secular show with some characters that see the God element in life. Helen currently lives in Phoenix, Arizona, and is a single parent of 3 children: Greg, 18 and in college; Tahnee, 17 and a junior in high school; and Grant, 14 years old.
