I am proud to say that I worked for and with Academy Award-winning filmmaker, Robert Snyder, for almost thirty years. Bob was nominated twice for the coveted Ocar The Hidden World, narrated by Gregory Peck, and The Titan: Story of Michelangelo for which he received the first Oscar ever given to a documentary, 1950. The narration was by Fredric March. Since then he has made films on Buckminster Fuller, Henry Miller, Anais Nin, Claudio Arrau, Willem De Kooning, Pablo Casals, among other great artists and thinkers. Below are the films I was privileged to be a creative par of.

The 50-year seal refers to 50 years since he won the Academy Award for The Titan: Story of Michelangelo.
