Vox Media Studios and New York Magazine Celebrate Premiere of “Gold & Greed: The Hunt for Fenn’s Treasure”

Vox Media Studios and New York Magazine’s new documentary series, Gold & Greed: The Hunt for Fenn’s Treasure is now streaming on Netflix. Based on Benjamin Wallace’s reporting for New York Magazine, Gold & Greed tells the story of Forrest Fenn, an 80-year-old man, who hid a fantastical treasure in the mountains north of Santa Fe that spurred a decade-long treasure hunt. People gave up their jobs, families, and even their lives in pursuit of Fenn’s hidden millions. Now, for the community of devoted hunters, this dangerous pursuit of gold has become an obsessive search for the meaning of truth. Gold and Greed profiles something exceedingly rare - a treasure hunt where the treasure is actually found - and the mystery of where it may be hidden again.

Gold & Greed: The Hunt for Fenn’s Treasure is the latest adaptation from Vox Media Studios and New York Magazine. Other recent projects include the feature-length documentary Deepfaking Sam Altman based on Elizabeth Weil’s reporting and HBO’s An Update on Our Family based on Caitlin Moscatello’s feature about family vlogging. Additional notable New York adaptations include Hustlers, The Watcher, Inventing Anna, Saturday Night Fever, and many others.

Gold & Greed is produced by Vox Media Studios and Nomadica Films. It is executive produced by Max Heckman, Chad Mumm, Mark W. Olsen, Jared McGilliard, David Clawson, John Collin Jr., Kurt Tondorf, James Campbell, Dean King, and James Haygood.
