Executive producers

The Center for Independent Productions, Inc. (CIP) was founded in 1980 as a 501(c)(3) organization.  CIP’s mission is to produce, direct, distribute and raise funds for theater and documentary films that have explore social, educational and historical subjects.  CIP (and Pacific Street Films the production entity of CIP) has functioned as the non-profit sponsor for many grants over the years, from the National Endowment for the Humanities to the Ford Foundation, as well as numerous smaller family foundations. In 2023, we opened our official theater wing: Rivertowns Playhouse.
