Keith Lane is a multimedia storyteller and producer.
After graduating from the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies in Portland, Maine, he set out to cover the complex socio-environmental issues he'd invested in as a student: war's long aftermath, natural disaster, environmental devastation, and political unrest. His work has taken him to earthquake-ravaged Haiti, mine-infested fields of Cambodia, and, eventually, a politically volatile Cairo, where he both taught at American University (Cairo) and photographed the city's streets from the 2012 presidential elections to the new president's ouster in 2013. In 2015, Keith worked on a multimedia investigation focusing on the lives of three Kurdish farmers living near the frontlines of the war with ISIS.
His animated short documentary, Earthling, earned awards and recognition at national and international film festivals.
Keith has his B.A. in Environmental Studies, an M.S. in Environmental Education, and a graduate certificate from the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies.
