Cynthia Lowen Biography

Cynthia Lowen is an Emmy-nominated filmmaker and award-winning writer known for addressing critical social issues through her documentaries. She is both the producer and writer of "Bully," a feature documentary that follows a year in the lives of students experiencing America's bullying crisis. The film, developed in collaboration with director Lee Hirsch, earned Lowen two Emmy nominations and the prestigious Alfred I. DuPont-Columbia Award for Excellence in Journalism, alongside the 2013 Stanley Kramer Award from the Producers Guild of America.

In addition to "Bully," Lowen directed and produced "Netizens," a documentary that delves into the lives of women facing online harassment, now distributed by HBO Max. Her most recent work, "Battleground," which premiered at the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival and is available on STARZ, examines the intersection of abortion and politics in America. Through these films, Lowen has spearheaded significant impact campaigns, such as The Bully Project Social Action Campaign, and collaborated with organizations like ACLU and Planned Parenthood.

Beyond her film work, Lowen is a celebrated poet, having won the 2012 National Poetry Series for her collection "The Cloud That Contained the Lightning," which uses the figure of J. Robert Oppenheimer to explore the legacy of nuclear weapons. Her poetic accomplishments have earned her the 2013 Women Authoring Change Fellowship and recognition as a Best New Poet of 2008. Lowen grew up in Amherst, Massachusetts, graduated from Colorado College, and received her MFA in creative writing from Sarah Lawrence College.

Cynthia Lowen Speaking Topics

  • The Cloud That Contained the Lightning: An Evening with Cynthia Lowen

    In this special presentation, Cynthia Lowen will read from her poetry collection, The Cloud That Contained the Lightning, winner of the 2012 National Poetry Series and released in September 2013. Using the character of J. Robert Oppenheimer, the "father of the atomic bomb," as a jumping-off point, The Cloud That Contained the Lightning explores the enduring legacy of the nuclear weapons, and the danger of forgetting. The reading will be followed with a discussion of the work with the author.

  • Nurturing Safe Relationships: Breaking Cycles of Bullying, Dating Violence & Domestic Abuse

    Research shows a strong correlation between youth who are exposed to domestic violence and those who engage in bullying behaviors, as well as those who perpetrate or experience physical violence in intimate relationships. While one in three young people ages 14-20 have experienced dating violence, both boys and girls who engage in bullying behaviors are far more likely to report physical violence in relationships than their peers.

    In this powerful multimedia presentation, Cynthia Lowen explores how communities can empower young women and men to engage in healthy, safe relationships. Using specific examples from her work with youth, educators and mental health experts, this talk will look at the formation of abusive behavior patterns and how these behaviors can evolve into bullying, harassment and violence towards peers and partners. She will also examine characteristics of physical and emotional abuse, cyber-bullying and sexual assault, equipping audiences with tools to identify and respond to relational violence and implement positive, community-wide interventions.

  • Fostering Positive School Climates with Social & Emotional Learning

    How can educators, parents and youth be equipped with the skills to prevent bullying before it takes root and create positive learning environments for all? In this engaging, multimedia presentation, Cynthia Lowen delves into the creative ways Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) can be integrated into school cultures and communities to create meaningful engagement, lasting impact and the next generation of motivated, caring citizens.

    Drawing on her experience co-creating The BULLY Project Social Action campaign, centered around SEL philosophy with a goal of reaching 10 million youth, this presentation will explore core Social and Emotional Learning strategies including: building trusting school-wide relationships, fostering empathy and understanding, promoting responsibility, facilitating student leadership and encouraging parent participation. This talk will also provide real-world examples of schools that have successfully implemented SEL and will depict the positive ripples this work has created throughout the community.
