Production partners Jennifer Oko and Miriam Weintraub are veteran journalists and filmmakers. Both graduates of Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism, they first met at CBS News and went on to build distinguished careers in broadcast journalism before joining forces as creative partners.
Miriam spent more than a dozen years as a producer for CBS' 60 Minutes and later developed and produced the HBO documentary Life According to Sam, winner of a Peabody Award, a Christopher Award, and a Primetime Emmy. Jennifer began her career in ABC News’ Moscow bureau and went on to produce features and specials across the major networks. She is also an acclaimed novelist, most recently the author of Just Emilia, published in 2025.
Together, they’ve built a dynamic partnership focused on stories that illuminate social justice issues. Their work includes short documentaries for The New York Times, PBS, and Retro Report on topics ranging from conspiracy theories during the Trump era to an underground abortion network in Chicago, the controversy surrounding shaken baby syndrome, and the first #MeToo movement on Wall Street.
In 2018, they produced the PBS documentary Vernon Jordan: Make It Plain with director Dawn Porter, as well as a short film on Congressman John Lewis that aired at the 2020 Democratic National Convention. They later served as senior producers on American Reckoning, a PBS Frontline documentary nominated for both Emmy and Peabody Awards.
Their recent work includes When a Witness Recants, an HBO feature documentary directed by Porter that premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival. They are currently in production on a feature-length film about the family court system.
