Paula Froehle Co-Founder and CEO, CMP

Paula is a multi-faceted human being who at any given moment is some combination of producer, director, visual artist, designer, educator, and entrepreneur – and equally loves it all. CMP is the culmination of her interests and abilities, which includes corralling large groups of people and getting them to move in (almost) one direction, thanks to growing up the middle child of 9.

She loves connecting good-hearted humans with storytellers that tug at your heartstrings and trigger you toward action. And she’s proud of CMP’s 50+ member community, its $5.5mil+ funding support to over 60 award-winning documentaries. While it’s hard to pick favorites, some notables are: Crip Camp, Knock Down the House, One Child Nation, On the Record, Athlete A, The Apollo, 16 Shots, Spaceship Earth, the top grossing biopic of all time Won’t You be My Neighbor? (she has a soft spot in her heart for Mr. Rogers), and Academy-Award winning Icarus.
