Lynden Harris

Lynden Harris is the founder and director of Hidden Voices (www.hiddenvoices.org) an organization whose mission is to challenge, strengthen, and connect diverse communities through the transformative power of the individual voice. Since 2003, Hidden Voices has collaborated with underrepresented communities to create award-winning works that combine narrative, mapping, performance, music, digital media, animation, and interactive exhibits to engage audiences and participants in explorations of difficult issues. Hidden Voices creates venues where stories from those rarely seen and heard by mainstream society take center stage. These life-changing stories provide insight about identity, place, and access. They help us understand the unrecognized, the unfamiliar, the displaced and forgotten among us. Hidden Voices believes in the power of stories to transform our communities and our policies. A Hidden Voices project encourages deep listening, expansive dialogue, and inspired action. By the close of a Hidden Voices project, between 15,000 and 20,000 people have engaged the project though interviews, workshops, exhibits, and performances. New digital media expands that audience significantly.
