Micheal Flaherty

Co-Founder, Walden Media. President, Think Again Studios

Mike Flaherty, President of Think Again Studios, previously co-founded Walden Media where he developed, financed, and produced films grossing over $3.3B at the Global Box Office, including The Chronicles of Narnia, Charlotte’s Web, Amazing Grace, Holes, Because of Winn Dixie, Bridge to Terabithia, The Giver and more. His first post-Walden film, STEP, won the Grand Prize at Sundance and I Can Only Imagine grossed $86M worldwide.

 

Prior to founding Walden Media in 2001, Flaherty designed innovative curricula in the Boston Public School System, which captured national attention from The Wall Street Journal and The Boston Globe. He designed the curriculum and taught for the Steppingstone Magnet Program for students in the worst public school cluster in Boston. As a result of his curriculum, the percentage of minority students in the troubled school district who gained admissions to Boston’s elite exam schools increased by more than 1000%.

 

As an author, Flaherty has been published in National Review, The Boston Business Journal and American Spectator. He also worked as a speechwriter for William Bulger, former President of the Massachusetts Senate, and Tom Reilly, the Massachusetts Attorney General. Flaherty is a graduate of Tufts University.
