Josh Golin is Executive Director of Fairplay, the leading independent watchdog of the children’s media and marketing industries.

Fairplay co-founded ParentsSOS and is the home to the Children’s Screentime Action Network. Josh has testified before Congress twice, and regularly speaks with parents, professionals, policymakers, and journalists about how to create a healthier media environment for young people.
