André Robert Lee

André is the Executive Producer of Notes from America with Kai Wright, a show about the unfinished business of our history and its grip on our future.

While most of his career has been dedicated to filmmaking, André has cultivated an expansive storytelling portfolio across various media platforms. André’s work has explored various topics, from incarcerated youth and Civil Rights History to personal narratives of underrepresented communities- including his own with numerous media outlets, including Paramount TV, PBS, and CNN. His film, The Prep School Negro, is an autobiographical documentary about his experience receiving a scholarship to a prestigious private school. 

André is also an educator who teaches filmmaking to Germantown Friends School middle and upper school students. He has proudly navigated a career where education, media, and storytelling converge to encourage intellectual curiosity and emotional growth. He is the namesake of the André Robert Lee Fellowship, a multi-million dollar program dedicated to providing financial grants, mentorship, and leadership opportunities to high school students while building a more robust culture of affinity and inclusion.
