American Studio is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that combines the intellectual rigor of a think tank with the emotional impact of a film studio.

We founded American Studio in 2021 with a simple mission: to document the American experience and produce the highest quality documentary films. 

We have produced films for PBS, Netflix, and international television. Our initiatives include research, writing, filmmaking, and activism, with the intention of not only pursuing the truth, but making social change.  

Our work has been featured in the nation’s most influential media outlets and we are currently working on a slate of new films.
