The Fellow will work under the supervision of the Director ("Director") of the Clinic, Dale Cohen, who is also Special Counsel to the PBS documentary series FRONTLINE, and collaborate closely with the Associate Director of the Clinic, Loralee Sundra, and other administrators and faculty to develop clinical, experiential, and pro bono opportunities that ensure students receive high-quality educational experiences. You will work with Clinic professors and supervise student-clinicians in counseling and providing legal services to the Clinic's filmmaker clients. The Fellow will also take on substantial responsibility for the operation of the Clinic's documentary filmmaker education program, which includes on-campus screenings and panels and programs at various film festivals around the country. In this role, you will cultivate relationships with film festivals and other documentary film organizations, collaborate with festival and organization programmers on all aspects of the program, and help to develop of program content.
