Dan Farah

ARCHETYPE

The Catalyst

Ideas with a spark, energy, range and the ability to start things.

Dan Farah reads as The Catalyst because his craft as a filmmaker is fundamentally about ignition, taking a subject and forcing it into public consciousness. As director of The Age of Disclosure, he chose material designed to open conversations rather than close them, and his appearance on The Diary of a CEO reflected the same energy. Farah leads by creating momentum, putting questions in front of audiences and trusting the resulting debate to do its work.

ARGUING COST OF INSTITUTIONAL SECRECY

When the film came out, it created a national conversation at an unprecedented level and it led to President Trump issuing this historic directive instructing federal agencies to start declassifying evidence of non-human intelligent life.
