Board of Trustees: Kia ora and ka kite!

We are excited to announce that Kathryn Graham is joining the Day One Hāpai te Haeata Board.

Kathryn has built a remarkable career serving Aotearoa’s screen industry. Over the past two decades, she has worked across a wide range of roles in film and television, including producing, development, and most recently as a development executive and content commissioner.

Known for her clear, down-to-earth approach, Kathryn has helped countless filmmakers and content creators bring their ideas to life. She is deeply respected for her ability to balance creative vision with practical execution, and for her commitment to supporting stories that matter.

Kathryn is also a board member of several charitable trusts and a member of the Jury for the International Emmys.

Her leadership, insight, and passion for meaningful storytelling make her an outstanding addition to the Day One Board. We are proud to welcome Kathryn and look forward to the impact she will bring.

Ka kite to Jeremiah Tauamiti! Jeremiah was a workshop facilitator before joining our Board and has also mentored Day One filmmakers. His involvement in the organisation goes back about a decade. We will miss Jeremiah and we wish him luck for all his future endeavours!
