Bio:
JASON ATKINSON is a leader, filmmaker, a writer, speaker, and a public servant. He has played an instrumental role in efforts to restore the Klamath River. Atkinson’s commitment to river restoration and conservation became evident when he was involved in state politics, advocating for measures to support and enhance Oregon's environment, water quality, and fisheries. But perhaps more notably, Atkinson took his passion for these issues to the world of documentary filmmaking. His documentary, "A River Between Us," focuses on the decades-long water wars in the Klamath Basin, where farmers, tribes, and fishermen have been at odds over water rights. By creating this documentary, Atkinson brought significant international attention to the issue, shedding light on the need for comprehensive solutions considering the concerns and needs of all stakeholders involved which moved the Obama White House to action. He is a Rodel Fellow with the Aspen Institute. He was recently named in the top 20 most influential fisherman in the west and Field and Stream named him a hero of conservation. He is an accomplished storyteller with three books and multiple articles published and remains a sought-after speaker. Atkinson serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Dove Media Network and is Chairman of the Oregon Governor's Office of Film & Television. He has served as a Commissioner for Oregon Fish and Wildlife and founded Pastors Monday- a non-profit taking Pastors of all faiths fly-fishing on their day off with chapters in three states. He has an MBA from the Atkinson Graduate School of Management at Willamette University. His work has been featured in the New York Times, 60 Minutes, Men’s Journal, MSNBC, Steelheaders Journal and the Drake to name a few.
