Coolidge: Rediscovering an American President
Producer, Director, Co-Writer, CinematographerI am very excited to announce that we have begun production on a new feature documentary about the life and times of President Calvin Coolidge. The film is being produced for the Calvin Coolidge Presidential Foundation in Plymouth, Vermont to help celebrate the 100th anniversary of his becoming President in 1923. Relatively unknown to people today, Coolidge was a popular if somewhat reluctant leader during a time of great prosperity and growth in a still very young country trying to define its own democracy. Hailing from a small village in rural Vermont to become Governor of Massachusetts and eventually Vice-President and then President, he walked away from re-election at the height of his popularity.
