Debra-Ann Smith has spent her career finding the clearest possible way to communicate something complicated to people who need to understand it.
As an award-winning documentary producer — her work includes the Telly Award-winning film Tangles & Locks and seven documentaries for the Smithsonian-Showtime Channel — she learned early that no communication tool is off the table when science needs to reach a general audience.
After earning a Bachelor of Arts from Harvard University, she completed a Master of Science in Biotechnology Enterprise and Entrepreneurship at Johns Hopkins University and a Certificate in the Ethics of AI from the London School of Economics. What she found confirmed what she had always suspected: the most important scientific breakthroughs of our time were reaching the public too late, too incompletely, and in language that excluded more people than it included.
In response, she founded The Kinnara Fund — a Washington D.C.-based nonprofit whose mission is to make science accessible and to advance the principles of bioethics in public, institutional, and corporate life.
The Biology of You is her first series. It will not be her last.
