SITTIN' ON A MILLION /// 26:00 2008 /// with Annmarie Lanesey
Mame Faye ran a world famous house of prostitution in Troy, New York for almost forty years (c. 1906 to 1941). Everyone past the age of retirement has a story - funny, sordid, unbelievable - about Troy's most famous madam. Sittin' on a Million presents these stories in all their contradictory glory, alongside vintage erotica, reenactments, and street performances. The documentary asks us to consider the role of memory and imagination in creating history, and reminds us about all those ordinary, extraordinary people erased from the official record. WEBSITE

INDEPENDENT MEDIA IN A TIME OF WAR /// 28:30 2003 /// with Hudson Mohawk Indymedia
Part scathing critique, part call to action, Independent Media In A Time Of War argues that dialogue is vital to a healthy democracy.

KITSCH IS A BEAUTIFUL LIE /// 1:48 2004
A spinning Day of the Dead diorama emerges in my imagination in the midst of a pro-choice rally. I listen to pro-choicers and pro-lifers scream at each other, chant slogans, and try to drown one another out.
