Big changes afoot

Feels like a big week. After 3 incredible years and 17 hours of cable documentary programming, I'm leaving my job as a TV Producer/Writer at a Bay Area production company.

Some highlights:

I've spent countless days and nights shooting re-creations on Alcatraz...



I've interviewed Joey Pallotta, the man who caught the world record white sturgeon...


I interviewed Sitting Bull's great grandson...


Helped direct some Crow Native Americans in a re-enactment of the Battle of Little Big Horn...


And met some fanatic re-enactors...


I directed a group of actors in the Battle of Little Big Horn...


Including one guy who did a great Teddy Roosevelt...


And perhaps best of all, I was the Greek general Miltiades in the Battle of Marathon...


I've done 7 shows for the National Geographic Channel:

-Alcatraz: Defying the Rock (2004):
-Thrill Zone: Extreme Powerboats (2005)
-Megastructures: The Berlin Wall (also known as The Berlin Wall: Great Escapes or The Berlin Wall: Escape to Freedom) (2005)
-Hooked: Monster Fish! (2006)
-Alcatraz: Living Hell (2007)
-Surviving Alcatraz (2007)
-Megastructures: The Golden Gate Bridge (2007)

You may notice an Alcatraz theme there...

I also was part of a team that wrote and produced a 20 part series about historic battles on the History Channel called Command Decisions. I wrote 9 of the shows:
-Battle of the Bulge
-Battle of Midway
-Battle of Stalingrad
-Battle of Little Big Horn
-Battle of San Juan Hill
-The Six Day War
-Battle of Inchon
-Battle of Saratoga
-Battle of Iwo Jima
