I Don't Think That There Has Been

I'm A Filmmaker. I'm An Artist. I've Chosen To Work In History The Way Someone Might Choose To Work In Still Lifes Or Landscapes.

When A Documentary Filmmaker, Working In The Style That I Do, Suggests That There Has Been A Shooting Ratio Of 40 Hours To Every One Hour Of Finished Film, That Doesn't Mean That The Other 39 Are Bad.

I Began To Feel That The Drama Of The Truth That Is In The Moment And In The Past Is Richer And More Interesting Than The Drama Of Hollywood Movies. So I Began Looking At Documentary Films.

I Treat The Photograph As A Work Of Great Complexity In Which You Can Find Drama. Add To That A Careful Composition Of Landscapes, Live Photography, The Right Music And Interviews With People, And It Becomes A Style.

No One Was More Important To The Game Of Baseball In The Last Half Of The 20th Century Than Henry Aaron And No One Writes About That Supremely Talented Man, That Tumultuous Time And This Treasure Of A Game Better Than Howard Bryant. Together, They Are An Extraordinary Combination, And The Book Bryant Has Written Gets To The Heart Of The Complicated And Dignified, Patient And Consistent Genuine Hero That Is Henry Aaron.
