Adam Wilkenfeld is a three-time Emmy Award-winning director, producer, interviewer, and writer whose work has reached audiences across North America and around the world. He created and executive produced Slobby’s World (Netflix) and Timber Kings (HGTV Canada), which ran for four seasons, spawned a spinoff, and became the #1 series in the network’s history. Adam also served as showrunner for the launch season of Timber Kings, which premiered with 4.5x the network’s average viewership in its timeslot.

Two of his Emmy Awards recognize Outstanding Documentary work; the third honors Best Public Affairs Programming.

Beyond television, Adam has brought his storytelling skills to campaigns for clients such as the New York State Education Department, Morehouse College, The Centers for Disease Control, Neutrogena, RL Leaders, the U.S. Army, THQ Video Games, Children’s Hospital, Los Angeles Unified School District, and many others.
