Peter Gerard is an indefatigable filmmaker who finds the extraordinary
in the ordinary. His first documentary, Out of Breath, looked at teen
life in the Midwestern town in which he grew up. The film won the
Audience Favorite award at the SOFA Film Festival in Portland, Oregon
and has been shown at the Royal Museum in Edinburgh, Scotland. In 2000
and 2001, he produced the Bargain Basement Film Festival, a celebration
of low-budget film. A multi-media visionary, he has made numerous short
films, designed award-winning websites, and shown his photography in
the U.S. and Britain. His documentary Just to Get a Rep documents the
art and history of graffiti in the U.S. and Europe. Now living in
Edinburgh, Scotland, Peter continues making documentaries including an
upcoming feature-length doc about a musician in Ghana.
