DAVID BOAZ: Champion of Liberty
David Boaz, the Executive Vice President of the Cato Institute, was there from the very beginning of the liberty movement -- when the world was covered in totalitarianism, bigotry, and war, Boaz stood up for a growing intellectual movement that, through sheer force of will, demanded to be a contender on the national and international stage. Honoring decades of service and dedication, this short documentary/tribute film screened at the Cato Institute in Washington, D.C. on February 4, 2024.
NODEHAUS served the entirety of the post-production for this piece -- from ingesting, to editing, to graphics and audio.

For more than four decades as the Cato Institute’s vice president for public policy and executive vice president, David Boaz played an indispensable role in the development of Cato and was a foundational figure of modern libertarian thought.
Under David’s direction, Cato grew from a small organization with a handful of employees renting office space in San Francisco, to a leading think tank in Washington, DC with a global presence. David’s exceptional scholarship, integrity, and standards for excellence informed every aspect of Cato. Anyone who has interacted with Cato’s work over the past 40 years was affected by David.
David passed away on June 7, 2024.
