A strong believer in human rights, Dean received the prestigious Order of Armenia for producing the anti-Genocide documentary film, Architects of Denial.  Dean’s newest documentary, Hate Among Us, just won an Emmy.  Hate Among Us shines a light on the current rise of anti-Semitism throughout the United States and Europe.

Dean also serves on the Board of Directors for the NRA. In Dean’s own words, “real heroes don’t wear capes, they wear uniforms and stethoscopes and badges.”

Dean will be honoring real heroes at the Firefighters’ Rodeo, the Coronation of Queen Shenandoah XCV, and leading the Firefighters’ Parade on Friday, April 29, at 5:30 p.m. On Saturday, April 30, he will serve as the Marshal of the Shenandoah Caverns Heroes’ Division in the Glo Fiber Grand Feature Parade honoring the dedicated essential workers during COVID.
