ABOUT SO’B PRODUCTIONS

Founded in 2013 by award-winning journalist Soledad O'Brien, SO'B Productions specializes in developing and producing thought-provoking television and film content on the very issues Soledad has championed throughout her career. With an emphasis on character-driven storytelling, SO'B's work strives to amplify marginalized voices, while exploring pressing social issues like race, class, gender, and identity. 

In 2022, SO'B produced The Rebellious Life of Mrs. Rosa Parks, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and streams exclusively on Peacock. In 2021, the company created "Disrupt and Dismantle" for BET ", "Who Killed My Son?" and "The Prison Breaker" for Discovery+ and the HBO series "Black and Missing," which won best documentary series at the Independent Spirit Awards. SO'B has also produced multiple documentary projects for CNN  and Al Jazeera America. 

SO'B has also partnered with leading foundations to produce compelling documentary content, including the Ford Foundation, the de Beaumont Foundation ("Outbreak: Pandemic in Seattle) and the Conagra Brands Foundation ("Hungry to Learn"). 

Projects from SO'B Productions have received numerous awards and recognition, including three Emmy Awards, an Independent Spirit Award, an NAACP Image Award, a TV Academy Honors Award, a Cinema Eye Honors Award, three Gracie Awards and most recently, a Critics Choice Award nomination.
