Beth Murphy is a documentary director, producer and author who founded the film production company Principle Pictures in 2000. She has produced/directed numerous television documentaries for Discovery International, The History Channel, Discovery Health, Lifetime Television and PBS. In 2002, she produced the documentary Fighting For Our Future, hosted by Melissa Joan Hart which focused on young women who have been diagnosted with breast cancer. In 2003, she wrote a companion book which was published by McGraw Hill. Her film, Beyond Belief, premiered at the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival. From 2008 to 2012, Beth traveled to Iraq, Syria, Jordan and Egypt filming The List, a film about Kirk W. Johnson and his struggle to resettle Iraqi allies in the United States.

In the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings of April 2013, Murphy made headlines for her photo series "To Boston. From Kabul. With Love." The photos in the series depicted sympathetic Kabul locals holding a handmade sign that said "TO BOSTON FROM KABUL WITH LOVE" that was originally made by Murphy for her own self portrait to send home. Murphy was quoted by the Huffington Post as saying, "My intent changed as I talked to people here about what had happened – many had heard the news – and I saw the pain in their faces, and reminders of their own hardships. They said, “I’m so sorry,” with that defining head shake that doesn’t need another word of explanation; it says, “I understand.”

The List is a modern-day Oskar Schindler story that focuses on Kirk W. Johnson, a young American fighting to save thousands of Iraqis whose lives are in danger because they worked for the U.S. to help rebuild Iraq. After leading reconstruction teams in Baghdad and Fallujah, Kirk returns home only to discover that many of his former Iraqi colleagues are being killed, kidnapped or forced into exile by radical militias. Frustrated by a stagnating government bureaucracy in the U.S. that has failed to protect its 'Iraqi allies,' Kirk begins compiling a list of their names and helps them find refuge and a new life in America.
