| Introduction | Launched in 2003 by Ed Kashi and Julie Winokur, Talking Eyes Media is strongly committed to in-depth documentary storytelling. We decided to create media with a social conscience, media that engages people on a visceral level so they don’t just learn about pressing issues, they understand on a deeper level why they should care. We felt we were in a unique position to combine photojournalism, writing, film and public outreach to create media that takes an active role in changing attitudes and problem solving. Talking Eyes Media is a non-profit organization that tackles tough issues through a humanistic lens. We also take great efforts to partner with organizations in the field committed to rectifying the problems we document. We distribute our materials across all media platforms, from broadcast to websites, from magazines to books to exhibition venues. We’re able to travel from the hallowed halls of museums and network television, to the down-and-dirty world of grassroots organizers, who have displayed our work in train stations, state capitols and union halls. We’re dedicated not just to creating media, but to following it through so the media we make makes a difference. |
