Ben Stiller came to Washington D.C. Wednesday and testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on the humanitarian crisis in Syria, sharing intimate details about the families he met while imploring the US to continue their assistance.
The famed actor and director, most known for his hilarious roles in “Something about Mary”, “Meet the Parents” and others, has taken a more serious turn in his career in the last few years, splitting his time off-camera as a director and working as a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Refugee Agency.
Through his work with the agency, Stiller has traveled “around the world” meeting with refugees, including to host countries like Jordan, Lebanon and Germany.
