About Us
Chris Wangro
Chris Wangro's career began, improbably, as ringmaster of a Brechtian circus; from that unlikely start he went on to become a producer of events seen by millions. He has worked with figures from the Dalai Lama to Dolly Parton creating international events focused on reproductive rights, AIDS, the climate emergency, immigrant rights, and education. Notably, he co-founded The Imagine Fest, which featured hundreds of artistic responses to social issues and grew to become the largest political arts festival in U.S. history.
