Emily Singer Chapman is a Peabody Award-winning, Dupont Award-winning and Primetime Emmy-nominated documentary director and producer.

Chapman’s recent feature documentary, Sue Bird: In The Clutch, weaves the WNBA icon’s farewell season with the story of her legendary career, one that rose in step with the WNBA itself. The film premiered with standing ovations at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, and streamed on Netflix, Apple TV and Amazon. In 2022, she produced Leave No Trace (HULU), a searing exposé on the Boy Scouts of America's abuse scandal cover-up, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and won a duPont-Columbia award.

Previous work includes Oklahoma City (PBS), a Peabody Award-winning and Primetime Emmy-nominated film which premiered at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival, and Who Killed Malcolm X (Netflix), a series that led to the exoneration of two men wrongly convicted of Malcolm X's assassination. Other notable projects include the Emmy-nominated, duPont-Columbia award-winning Ken Burns series Cancer: The Emperor of All Maladies (PBS) and the Emmy-nominated series Black America Since MLK: And Still I Rise (PBS).

Chapman is committed to telling nuanced stories that experiment with style and explore themes of power that reverberate through time. In that spirit, she has collaborated with acclaimed documentary studios A24, Jigsaw Productions, Imagine Entertainment, RadicalMedia, and Ark Media, with her work screened theatrically and on HBO, Netflix, Hulu, PBS, and Showtime.

She is currently across several film projects in development and production, including an animated hybrid documentary feature film about the midlife crisis of Carl Jung, the Swiss psychiatrist and peer of Freud. She splits her time between Brooklyn, NY and her hometown Portland, OR.
