For nearly three decade, Stan Minasian presided over the non-profit organization Marine Mammal Fund (later changed to Animal Fund), whose purpose was to end the killing of dolphins during fishing operations of the U.S. purse seine tuna fleets. Over the past forty years, over eight million dolphins have perished in U.S. tuna nets.
In the process of helping to end the U.S. involvement, Minasian produced two major television documentary films on this issue, one of which was the recipient of three Emmy Awards. His documentary film, Where Have All the Dolphins Gone?, hosted by the late George C. Scott, was broadcast primetime on the Discovery Channel and was instrumental in all three U.S. tuna canneries (StarKist, Chicken-of-the-Sea, and BumbleBee) no longer accepting tuna caught by the use of dolphins, thus establishing the "Dolphin Safe" label on all cans of tuna sold in the United States.
As a filmmaker, he has written, produced and co-produced documentaries centering on animal education and welfare issues. Below is a partial list of his productions and links for free viewing.
