Author: Ann Strimov Durbin, Esq.

Ann Strimov Durbin is the Director of Advocacy and Grantmaking at Jewish World Watch. During her time at Columbia University, where she received both her B.A. and her Masters in International Affairs (M.I.A) from the School of International and Public Affairs, Ann worked with numerous organizations—including Human Rights Watch, the Watchlist on Children and Armed Conflict and several U.N. agencies—and after graduate school, she served as a philanthropic adviser at Wellspring Philanthropic Fund, where she created a grantmaking portfolio devoted exclusively to war-affected children. After several years in grantmaking, Ann returned to Los Angeles, where she obtained her J.D. from the UCLA School of Law, with a concentration in public interest law. She has worked on several cases using the Alien Tort Statute as a mechanism for holding perpetrators of gross human rights abuses accountable in U.S. civil courts, including a case before the Supreme Court.

Where Every Rohingya Woman is a Hero

Ann Strimov Durbin, Esq.
