Jan Jekielek

I'm a senior editor with The Epoch Times, an award-winning filmmaker & host of the show “American Thought Leaders”.

I started working with The Epoch Times 20 years ago, at a time when popular narratives in the West hid the dark underbelly of communist China. I did some of the earliest reporting on the Chinese regime’s continuing practice of forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience. Over the last six years, I've interviewed over a thousand thought leaders on camera, including heads of state, multiple U.S. cabinet secretaries and agency heads, congressional members & brilliant people from all walks of life.

I specialize in long-form discussions that challenge assumptions. My work explores the thought of some of America's most influential people, through the eyes of a relative outsider, a Canadian. I also produced “DeSantis: Florida vs. Lockdowns,” “The Unseen Crisis,” the Holocaust documentary “Finding Manny” and am currently producing a film on a new paradigm of medicine.
