Glenn Baker created the U.S.-Cuba Cooperative Security Project in 1999, aimed at developing and expanding U.S.-Cuban dialogue on military and regional security issues. This dialogue is intended to help chart the course for normalizing political relations, and to facilitate peaceful U.S.-Cuba relations both today and in the future.

Baker is a writer-producer with more than 40 documentaries broadcast on PBS exploring global security issues. His productions on nuclear weapons, Cuba, the military and the media, weapons marketing, conflict prevention, and firearms violence have been recognized with more than a dozen national awards. He was executive producer for Azimuth Media for the Frontline program “Missile Wars,” and wrote and produced “Arming the Heavens,” a documentary on the weaponization of space. His latest project is “Stand Up: Muslim-American Comics Come of Age,” a documentary in the Corporation for Public Broadcasting’s America at a Crossroads Initiative. He is currently senior producer for “Foreign Exchange with Fareed Zakaria,” a weekly international affairs program on PBS co-produced with Oregon Public Broadcasting. Previously he was an analyst at the National Security Archive evaluating declassified government documents. He became co-director of Azimuth Media in 2001.
