KATHERIN HERVEY

Katherin Hervey is an award-winning filmmaker, mixed-media artist, and storyteller. She is interested in what is hiding in the dark corners of the American landscape and our collective psyches, believing truth is often found in the dark before it shines in the light. For her, story is one of the most powerful forces for transformation we have.

Her work spans documentary, visual art, narrative film, audio storytelling, and publishing. A prominent advocate for criminal legal reform, her insights have been featured in The Guardian, Business Insider, Forbes, and beyond. She holds a Juris Doctorate from Loyola Law School and was the Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of Shades of Contradiction, a national arts and culture magazine dedicated to critical thinking and creative action.

She is co-founder of On the Border Films, a production company committed to sharing stories of deep humanity and hope. Her mixed media artworks and creative fiction have been exhibited in galleries and published in online and print literary journals.
