I've had a ball writing, directing and producing award-winning documentaries and other forms of media since 1975. Based in the SF Bay Area, I've had the opportunity to explore a variety of subjects and formats, from a bilingual children's show for PBS (Villa Alegre), to a feature-length docudrama (The People vs Dan White) to investigative docs (9/11:Press For Truth) a series of environmental shorts (Green Means) and various programs and series for PBS, A&E, CNBC, MSNBC and HGTV. I had the priviledge of heading up the video department at GLEF from 2001 to 2010.
On the "B" side, I enjoy making wine and music, playing tennis and golf, and watching my son play baseball.
