About The Author

Jimmy Chin

Jimmy Chin

Jimmy Chin is an Academy Award-winning filmmaker, an award-winning National Geographic photographer, and a professional climber and skier. He has led and documented cutting-edge expeditions around the world for over 20 years.

Chin has climbed and skied Mount Everest from the summit and made the coveted first ascent of the Shark’s Fin on Mount Meru. His photographs have graced the covers of National Geographic Magazine and the New York Times Magazine.

In 2019, Chin, along with co-director and co-producer Chai Vasarhelyi, was awarded a BAFTA and the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature for Free Solo, an intimate, unflinching portrait of rock climber Alex Honnold. The film also received seven Emmy Awards.

More recently, he co-directed his first scripted feature, Nyad, for Netflix, which saw both stars Annette Bening and Jodie Foster receiving Academy Award nominations.
