The Savannah Economic Development Authority has announced the Executive Director of the Savannah Regional Film Commission, Erin Fraser, has died.

The announcement came Monday night. Fraser died unexpectedly on March 3. She was named SRFC executive director on Dec. 13, 2022. According to the Savannah Economic Development Authority, during her time as executive director, she made a tremendous impact on the office and the entertainment production community.

“Erin was a veteran in the entertainment production industry and was already making such a positive impact here in Savannah. She had such a radiant and positive energy that people gravitated to her. She was going to do big things here in Savannah and we are so fortunate that we were able to spend the time we had with her,” Savannah Economic Development Authority President and CEO Trip Tollison said. “We are heartbroken at the loss and offer her husband, her three children and her family and friends our condolences.”

Fraser got her start in entertainment production as a senior assistant to Lorne Michaels, creator of "Saturday Night Live," where she helped in the development and launch of "Late Night with Conan O'Brien," as well as working on "Wayne’s World 2," "Tommy Boy," and "Black Sheep." She was then tapped as a producer for Broadway Video, Michael’s production company. Fraser also worked as a staff writer for "Saturday Night Live" as well as an associate producer and talent executive for Burly Bear Network, where she was responsible for developing talent and producing original programming.

Fraser was born on April 23, 1969, in New York City, N.Y. She graduated top of her class at Sleepy Hollow High School in Tarrytown, New York, where she also was a track star. She attended Oxford College of Emory University and served on the Oxford College of Emory University Board of Counselors. She married her husband, Jay Fraser III, on Sept. 6, 1997, and had three children, all whom are either alumni or current students at Emory University. Memorial services in Savannah and New York will be announced at a later date.

They need to develop a vaccine for “dies suddenly”, I won’t take it either but I figure my natural immunity will handle this too.
