All of the films offered on this site are the result of my working with an incredible team of filmmakers, videographers, editors, musicians, interviewees, students, and many other talented people. By clicking on an image in the left hand column, you can view, and then download or purchase any of the documentaries we've created over the last 30 years. My production company, Concentric Media, focuses on issues of social justice and human rights. Honors for the films include an EMMY, an OSCAR nomination, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting Gold Medal.Subjects of my work range from progressive education to holistic healing; from the universal connection within faiths throughout the world, to election integrity in the United States. The work includes several series, a trilogy on women's reproductive rights as well as a five-part series on HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia.My book, PRODUCING with PASSION (co-authored with Tony Levelle) overviews three decades in production. The reflections in it follow my career and offer specific suggestions for independent filmmakers and other visionary artists to use in their work as they find their OWN voices. All the films mentioned on this site are available for sale and/or free download.
