Daniel Fellini
- Producer

- Actor
Daniel Fellini was born and raised just outside of Boston, MA. Before
college, he spent most of his time split between music and photography.
As a student at Emerson College in Boston, he studied communications,
and worked at both the campus newspaper -- as editor in chief -- and at
the low-power AM radio station as a DJ. He also did a stint as "Crazy
Dan Fellini" the weatherman, on WERS-FM, the college's award-winning FM
station. Fellini spent the first part of his career as a writer,
reporter and editor at several newspapers, before diving into the world
of art direction. This didn't last long, as he found himself at a
dot-com start-up working with public broadcasting stations throughout
the country. In 2006 he left the Boston area for Portland, OR, and
became producer -- then executive producer -- for a national non-profit
organization, One Economy Corp. There he built a next-generation online
video site called The Public Internet Channel, one of the first
video-centric sites featuring web series. Then-Senator Barack Obama,
and Senator John McCain, were honorary co-chairs of the project when it
launched. Fellini writes, directs and produces web series for The
Public Internet Channel, including the award-winning Real American
Family.
