Diane Nilan

For a quarter century, Diane Nilan, founder and president of HEAR US Inc., has worked with income and housing-challenged families and single adults.

Living out of her home/office RV since 2005, her 48 state, 80,000+-mile backroads cross-country journey has found her relentlessly chronicling poverty and homelessness, using film, especially the HEAR US award-winning production, “My Own Four Walls,” blogs, her book (Crossing the Line: Taking Steps to End Homelessness) and public appearances to give voice and visibility to homeless families and teens.

She’s excited about their soon-to-be completed documentary on homeless women, “on the edge” (working title).

HEAR US has several related projects. Check our website, www.hearus.us.
