Who Is Yellowstone’s Melanie Olmstead? What Happened to her?

If you’ve been binging Paramount Network’s Yellowstone recently, you’re probably one of the viewers who got curious after seeing the title card at the end of Season 2 dedicated to Melanie Olmstead. If you’re wondering who this person could be in the cast or crew, look no further—we’ve got you covered.
When Yellowstone’s season 2 finale aired, it was no surprise that a good portion of the fanbase was quick to clamour on social media to learn more about this seemingly integral person to the show. Sure enough, Melanie Olmstead worked on Yellowstone as a lead for location and transportation.
With a deep history in the movie and television industry, she’s been around since 2000, working on sets (as a driver and location assistant) for popular media like Hereditary, Good Joe Bell, Point Break, John Carter, 12 Dogs of Christmas: Great Puppy Rescue, Jackie & Ryan, Wind River, Snatchers, Andi Mack and a lot more. Her work is definitely one of the more underappreciated aspects of TV production, so it’s great to see the team behind Yellowstone present this dedication to her.
The background in the production of Hollywood movies and shows is an extremely hectic job. With 20 years of industry experience, Melanie (a location lead) was certainly one of the few people fully capable of doing that job.
Melanie Olmstead (raised by her adoptive parents, Janet Corbridge and Reid Howard) was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, spending most of her time in the area. Coincidentally or conveniently, the show was also filmed in Salt Lake City, making the work she did on Yellowstone extra special for Melanie as her experience in the region felt rewarding for her both as a local and an animal lover to be a contributing part of the Yellowstone experience.
Although Yellowstone (which stars Kevin Costner as John Dutton, Wes Bentley as Jamie Dutton, Kelly Reilly as Beth Dutton, Luke Grimes as Kayce Dutton, Cole Hauser as Rip Wheeler, and Kelsey Asbille as Monica) is supposed to be set in a region close to the Yellowstone national park, there wasn’t a filming location that was logistically satisfying for the cast and crew. Hence, there is a need to use a region like Salt Lake City. That turned out to be a great decision for the show, as Utah was a place that Melanie Olmstead was already super familiar with.
The relationship she had with the cast and production crew was a strong bond that they shared. This is evident by their emotional tribute to her. In the episode called Sins of the Father, the words “In memory of Melanie Olmstead 1968-2019” first appeared.
Unfortunately, Melanie passed away at 50 years of age following a 2-year battle with cancer (the official cause of her death). She passed away in her home in Salt Lake City while in the
