Quin Mathews is a storyteller with over fifty years of experience in film, broadcasting, and journalism. For two decades he worked as a television news anchor and reporter and produced and hosted a radio show on the arts for twenty-five years.
Born in Dallas in 1950, he saw President Kennedy forty minutes before the assassination. That encounter and the shock of Kennedy’s death spurred a sixty-year quest to investigate the extremist political climate in 1963, and resulted in several stories and films. The most recent is “City of Hate: Dallas and the Assassination, Sixty Years Later,” which won critical praise when broadcast on PBS stations and screened at the Dallas International Film Festival (2024).
