Bear Stearns and The Great American Character Flaw
In the year between college and going to graduate film school I had the interesting experience of working at Bear Stearns in Boston. It was quite the place.

No, nothing earth shattering here, just a great example about what so often happens to the best laid plans and how, as much as we like to lead neat and tidy… Continue Reading
The Fuel That Propels the Project
This morning, after having spent most of yesterday away from home filming Dr. Kyle Pruett in New Haven, CT (more on this later!) my four-year-old son had all sorts of questions about why I am making this film. I explained to Charlie that the purpose of the film is to get more dads involved with… Continue Reading

Here’s a sampler from last week. The other night I had the great pleasure of speaking to a New Jersey couple… Continue Reading
