Investigative Studios is dedicated to high-quality investigative journalism because it is a cornerstone of democracy. We produce, fiscally sponsor, and financially back documentary films, podcasts, and books, and we mentor creators behind them. Trustworthy information is essential to a functioning democracy, and our body of work speaks to what rigorous investigative journalism can accomplish.
Founded in 2015 by Lowell Bergman as the Investigative Reporting Program at UC Berkeley's Graduate School of Journalism, Investigative Studios has produced or co-produced award-winning works.
