Cecilia Peck

Background

Cecilia Peck-Voll is an American documentary filmmaker and the daughter of legendary actor Gregory Peck. She studied film at UCLA and became known for nonfiction filmmaking focused on social justice and human rights themes. Her work includes documentaries exploring civil rights history and examinations of American cultural figures.

Peck has had a career at the intersection of Hollywood and documentary filmmaking, bringing access and production quality associated with the entertainment industry to journalistic storytelling. Her family background gave her broad access in media and entertainment circles.

Connection to Epstein

Peck directed documentary work examining the Jeffrey Epstein case, including material that became part of the broader media landscape around the case. She worked with survivors and advocates to bring personal testimony to documentary format.

In the context of the Netflix documentary and related projects examining Epstein, Peck’s filmmaking work contributed to the documentary record, featuring direct testimony from survivors about their experiences and the institutional failures that allowed Epstein to operate. Documentary filmmakers working on the Epstein case played an important role in translating complex legal and investigative material into accessible form for general audiences.

Her work in this space was part of the broader media ecosystem — including Julie K. Brown’s journalism, the Netflix series Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich, and subsequent documentary projects — that kept public attention on the case and sustained pressure for accountability.

Aftermath

Peck continued her filmmaking career. Documentary journalism about the Epstein case remained active through the Maxwell trial (2021), the ongoing document unsealing, and the bank liability settlements. Filmmakers who documented the case became part of the historical record of how the public came to understand the scope of Epstein’s operation and the failures of the institutions that should have stopped him.

She has been involved in ongoing documentary work on related social justice themes and continues to work in nonfiction filmmaking.
