Presenter
HILTON KELLEY
Executive Director and Founder, Community
Organizer, Activist, Author and Artist
CIDA Inc.

Hilton Kelley is a U.S. Navy veteran. After being released from the military, Mr. Kelley pursued
his life's passion of working in the film and television industry. He was inducted into the Screen
Actors Guild (SAG-AFTRA) in 1991.

After more than a decade in the acting business, Mr. Kelley returned to his hometown of Port
Arthur, Texas. What he found there inspired him to take action to rebuild and revitalize his
hometown community.

Mr. Kelley founded CIDA Inc. and began to challenge the environmental violations of the plants
that loom over the community he calls home. CIDA collects scientific data from the emission
sources and educates residents of Port Arthur about the toxic burden they shoulder.

In 2002 Mr. Kelley testified before the U.S. Senate on behalf of impoverished communities
across the nation. Mr. Kelley is the 2011 Goldman Environmental Prize winner and received
Presidential recognition for his achievements.
