Who Is Cassie Jaye’s Husband?

Jaye married Evan Davies in June 2018, whom also worked as director of photography on the Red Pill.

In a 2017 interview with Australian TV show The Project, when asked about a recent high-profile murder of Luke Anderson by his father, Jaye emphasized that it was a specific example of a male victim of domestic abuse, instead of as an example of a male perpetrator. Jaye described the interview as “hostile and aggressive”, and initially pulled out of some interviews following the incident. Later she resumed interviews but made her own recording of the discussions as she stated she had been “misquoted so much”.

Jaye directed and produced the 2016 American documentary film The Red Pill about the men’s rights movement. Jaye spent a year interviewing men’s rights figures, such as Paul Elam, founder of A Voice for Men; Harry Crouch, president of the National Coalition for Men; Warren Farrell, author of The Myth of Male Power; and Erin Pizzey, who started the first domestic violence shelter in the modern world. She also interviewed critics of the movement, such as Ms. magazine executive editor Katherine Spillar, and sociologist Michael Kimmel. Jaye initially relied on her own money to fund the film, as well that from her mother and her boyfriend as she found difficulty finding backers from traditional sources after it became known that the film would take a “balanced approach” view of the men’s rights movement. In what she called a “last resort”, she started a campaign on the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter. The Kickstarter project promised to be a fair and balanced look at the men’s rights movement. Her effort was strongly criticized by some feminists including David Futrelle, who runs a website called We Hunted the Mammoth who said it looked like propaganda. However she received support from Breitbart News columnist Milo Yiannopoulos.

Jaye directed and produced her second feature documentary film The Right to Love: An American Family in 2012. The film chronicles a family known as “Gay Family Values” on YouTube in the aftermath of California Proposition 8 (2008).

The film premiered in February 2012 at the Castro Theatre in San Francisco, California with guest speaker Zach Wahls. The film went on to screen at the Frameline Film Festival.

Jaye directed and produced the 2010 American documentary film Daddy I Do which examines sex education and sexual abstinence programs in America. Daddy I Do included interviews with the founder of the Silver Ring Thing Denny Pattyn, feminist writer Amanda Marcotte, and Douglas Kirby. The film also discusses personal stories from women facing teenage pregnancy, single motherhood, abortion and sexual assault. Bust magazine praised “Jaye for exposing the truth about abstinence-only programs, the stories of teenagers who buy into it, and its consequences…”

Jaye grew up in Fort Sill, Oklahoma, US, to Nena Jaye. At age eighteen, she moved to Los Angeles, where she was an actress for five years before moving to Marin County, California in 2008. Jaye disliked the stereotypical roles she was cast in, which she described as “cute girl-next-door who always died in horror films.” Along with several incidents of sexual harassment, this led her to embrace feminism. She formed the production company Jaye Bird Productions in 2008.
