ABOUT

Kevin Knoblock is a writer, producer and director of feature films, feature documentaries, and hundreds of hours of syndicated television and cable programs.

My documentary Journey to America aired January 14, 2025 nationally on PBS and is still streaming at PBS.org. Journey to America celebrates the achievements of nine individuals from diverse backgrounds who pursued the American dream and contributed to the fabric of our nation -- from Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini, who arrived from Italy in 1889, to Maria Daume, who was adopted from a Russian orphanage in 2002 and became the first female Marine to earn a traditional infantry title. The film celebrates their achievements in a nation that, at its best, recognizes that the ideas of freedom and opportunity are still a beacon of hope for so many who come to America.

Feature documentaries include BORDER WAR (Winner, Best Documentary 2006, American Film Renaissance), BROKEN PROMISES: THE UNITED NATIONS AT 60 (2005 WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival Special Jury Remi Prize winner), and NINE DAYS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD about Pope John Paul II’s historic trip to Poland, the beginning of the Solidarity movement and the collapse of Soviet Communism. NINE DAYS premiered in April, 2010 in the US and in June, 2010 in Warsaw, Krakow and Rome. NINE DAYS went on to win two 2011 Telly Awards and a Special Jury Gold Remi Award for Best Documentary at the 2011 WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival.

Television work includes directing at Paramount Television’s ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT, multiple cable documentaries for A&E, History, TLC, and Discovery and writing and directing at the broadcast stations KCBS and KABC, where he received multiple Emmy nominations.
