Kevin Dobson

Producer

Born and raised in Wichita, KS (but don’t hold that against me). Went on to graduate from K.U. with a degree in theater and film. From there I began work with the fine folks at the Kansas City Film Office where I was quickly passed on to Maplewood Productions and Universal Pictures to assist in the making of Ang Lee’s “Ride with the Devil.” I then returned to Lawrence and became a part owner of isoar Productions where we produced a comedy cooking show and many other projects including commercials, special events and short independent dog dramas.

More recently, I have found a home here at Free State Studios where I am lucky enough to produce Jayni’s Kitchen and Home and Away.

My only regret so far is that I have yet to lift my own body weight, but I’m confident that through a steady regimen of procrastination it may one day be possible.
