Her sweet spot is documentary storytelling at the bleeding edge of societal change—films driven by revolutionary people, righteous causes, taking a forceful stand on controversial material. She supports hundreds of independent journalists and creators. Ruth Ann is the publisher of The Sunday Long Read, a compendium of the week’s best in journalism. She is a patron of CreativeMornings, the world’s largest face-to-face creative community, a powerful antidote to social isolation. Through its chapters, clubs, and gatherings, CreativeMornings fosters friendship, collaboration, and mutual support—all free to attend.After co-producing the Tony Award–winning Broadway musical SUFFS, about the fight for women’s suffrage in the United States, she joined the producing team of its national tour, currently underway.
