What’s up DOC? Executive director resigns


TORONTO – The Documentary Organization of Canada (DOC) has lost its executive director, Samantha Hodder, after three years with the organization.

No reason was provided for her resignation, and there was no mention of where Hodder may be headed.

“Ms. Hodder was instrumental in advancing the mission of DOC and shepherding it through a financial and structural reorganization, and qualifying DOC for its present status as a National Arts Service Organization,” said the statement announcing her departure. “Her intelligent and tireless work has made an enduring contribution to the organization. DOC thanks her for her efforts and wishes her well in her new endeavours.”

The Documentary Organization of Canada/l’association des Documentaristes du Canada is a national non-profit association representing over 700 directors, producers and craftspeople in the Canadian documentary community.
