About Me

I am recently relocated back to Florida from Los Angeles, where I lived and worked as an editor for some 15 years. I lived in Tampa until 1987, when I left a teaching position at USF and moved to L.A. I have cut feature films, documentaries and industrials. My most recent work (which I directed, wrote and cut) is CONGA LESSONS AT THE BAY PIGS, 52 minutes and shot in Cuba this past December/January. It is a companion doc to my earlier effort in Cuba, CUBA: THE 40 YEARS WAR, narrated by Martin Sheen. This one I also cut as well as co-produced/directed and wrote. I have my own portable AVID Xpress DV with 5 exterior fire-wire drives and DVD burner.

I currently live in St. Petersburg. For the right situation, I am willing to travel or relocate elsewhere in Florida (temporarily or permanently). Reel is available.
