Born to an Australian mother and an Indian father, Jon Kasbe spent most of his childhood traveling. He soon found documentary filmmaking to be a way to immerse himself in his travels and share discoveries with others. Kasbe bought his first camera at age ten to interview children in war-torn Serbia. Today his short films have garnered an Emmy Award, two Emmy nominations, and recognition from the Webbys, SXSW, Hot Docs, Vimeo Staff Picks, and The White House News Photographers Association.
