“In the ten years or so I’ve worked on projects for Griffith Films, Bob has been a mentor to me. Among the things I’ve learned are the nuances of documentary filmmaking: to have patience, to trust my instincts, how to work with the subjects, to stay true to the message.” – Patrick Gregory, Cinematographer, Independent Filmmaker
