Barbara became CEO of Docs In Progress in the Fall of 2022 after serving as both Board Chair and Treasurer for Docs. Committed to Docs' mission that everyone has a story to tell, Barbara is passionate in opening these creative doors to a wider audience whether it is launching an incubator for Filmmakers with Disabilities, expanding Village Reels, our intergenerational filmmaking program or expanding our workshop and screening offerings to all filmmakers.
Barbara started Evolving Communications, a multimedia production company, because she was inspired by the scientists and engineers, she met during her tenure leading the National Academy of Sciences [NAS] Television Office.
She realized then that these âunsung heroesâ had compelling stories that needed to be told and shared. Barbara uses her extensive experience and background in video production, journalism, and science & technology policy to bring 265+ memorable and dynamic narratives to life in the fields of science, engineering, health and international development. Evolving Communications remains as a creative collaboration of talents. And we have worked across the African continent nine times!
