General info :
Naomi Shohan is a Production Designer known for her work on American Beauty (1999), I Am Legend (2007) and Training Day (2001).
She was first credited in 1987 for Open House and more recently in 2016 for Ben-Hur.

Shohan had aspirations of becoming a painter when she won a scholarship to the California Institute of the Arts at the age of 16. The school, though, had no interest in old-fashioned art. So she dropped out, took a job making holograms in San Francisco, and for a while studied philosophy at Stony Brook in New York. Then, pretty much by happenstance, she wound up a Production Designer: she had a boyfriend who was directing an exercise video—a post-apocalyptic exercise video and she made post-apocalyptic sets for it.It was called The BodySculpture System.

Soon after she got a job at HBO that was a little more legitimate where she started as a set decorator. Since in the middle the production, the designer was unable to complete the job, Naomi had to take over. After that, she began to get work that was much better than the earlier.

In 2000 she married Film and Television Director Anthony Drazan (born 1955).
