About the Filmmaker

Kate Hammond is an award-winning producer and the founder of Softcut Films, a Brooklyn-based production company that brings urgent, mission-driven stories to life.

Drawn to big, messy human stories, Kate co-produced Maddman: The Steve Madden Story (Netflix), about the rise, fall, and comeback of the maverick fashion mogul, and worked on Sweet Micky for President (Showtime), which follows a pop star’s wild run for Haiti’s highest office.

This past year, Kate has produced short films for the International Association for Safe and Ethical AI (IASEAI), the Center for Human-Compatible AI (CHAI), and AI Safety Connect at India’s AI Impact Summit, engaging closely with leaders across the AI safety and governance landscape. As a mum of two young daughters, she approaches this work with a deeply personal stake, thinking often about the world her children are growing up in. After immersing herself in this community, she has found it hard to look away.
