Judy Jackson was the first woman Director/Producer to be hired by “The Fifth Estate.”
Since that time she has made over 100 documentaries about human rights and social
justice which have been broadcast by the CBC, CTV, TVO, Vision TV, and Knowledge
in Canada; by the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 in England; and on the Discovery Channel

documentaries also lead to change. For example:
A trilogy of films for CBC’s “The Nature of Things,’’about Stephen Lewis’s amazing work
