ABOUT

Cara Tortora is a seasoned Supervising Producer with over a decade of experience in documentary and nonfiction production.

With a comprehensive understanding of all production facets—from concept development, booking, and field directing to script supervision and post-production—Cara excels in delivering high-value, commercially viable product on tight budgets.

Her relentless curiosity drives her to create content that brings fresh and compelling perspectives to the table. She thrives on challenges, even if that means jumping headfirst into the Gulf of California to get a shot of a whale shark or hauling cases full of gear to a remote Alaskan island. Whether orchestrating series production on Magnolia’s Baked in Tradition or booking guests for Nightline’s acclaimed coverage of a mass casualty event, Cara’s journey through the nonfiction industry is vast and varied.
