For biographical and filmographic data, please click on the name of a filmmaker, above.

We are in the initial stages of developing a list of filmmakers who specialized in making 16mm classroom academic films. The list is not comprehensive. Please contact us if you would like us to post the filmography/biography of your favorite pre-1985 academic, documentary, ethnographic, art, or animation 16mm filmmaker.

In addition, please assist us by visiting our Missing Filmmakers page to help us in tracking down missing filmmakers.
