BOB McKINNON – Founding Director
Among others, the Institute of Medicine, the National Institute of Health, the Federal Trade Commission, the National Governors Association and the U.S. Congress, have called upon Bob to provide honest perspective on the many issues facing us today. He is a contributor to the Huffington Post, frequent lecturer and has appeared on NPR’s All Things Considered and been interviewed by the Wall Street Journal and Washington Post among many others
In 2010, McKinnon created and edited Actions Speak Loudest: Keeping Our Promise for A Better World. The book is a collection of ideas, images, and actions designed to inspire us to keep our generational promise to leave the world a better place than the one we inherited. It is a collaborative effort that features over thirty contributors and one hundred and thirty organizations. He is also the producer of the documentary film Remote Control, which looks at the issue of children and the media though the lens of total media consumption and what it may be displacing in our children’s lives.
