- Without Fear or Favor is the first documentary film to tell the story of the dramatic and powerful contemporary relevance of Dorothy Thompson, the 'First Lady of American journalism' in the 1930s. The film reveals Thompson as America's preeminent voice against fascism and her expulsion from Nazi Germany in 1934. Thompson was physically removed from the February 1939 Nazi Bund rally in New York City's Madison Square Garden after loudly mocking speakers. That same year in June, Thompson was featured on the cover of Time Magazine, wherein she was considered as influential as then-First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt. Thompson was the first American woman to lead a foreign press bureau, and inspired the character played by Katharine Hepburn in the film "Woman of the Year" (1942). As early as the late-1930s Thompson was heralded as a potential nominee for U.S. president or vice-president. She had a turbulent marriage to bestselling novelist Sinclair Lewis, the first American recipient of the Nobel Prize for literature. Thompson's reporting from pre-WWII Germany inspired Lewis to write his best-selling It Can't Happen Here (1935), a satirical depiction of America's descent into authoritarian rule. Lewis's novel hit the best-seller lists once again during the 2016 presidential election, bringing renewed attention to Thompson's own legacy as an ardent anti-fascist. Lewis's novel was the story of a patriotic journalist risking it all to resist authoritarianism. Thompson's reporting was cited by President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Prime Minister Winston Churchill as having played a vital role in building public confidence and support for the war effort. Albert Einstein said that Thompson was the "awakener of the American conscience."

- In a highlight of his extraordinary life as an artist, writer, and scientist, Ernest Thompson Seton in 1907 led a daring expedition into the Arctic wilderness of the Northwest Territories. Seton, then 47 years old, was a famous celebrity, the most important wildlife illustrator of his generation, a best selling author, a co-founder of the wildlife conservation movement, co-founder of the world-wide Scouting movement, and a leading figure in the emerging sciences of ecology and ethology. He explored an area unknown to the outside world, documenting its wildlife and determining the geography of a remote lake, Aylmer. I led an expedition to the lake in 2015; its goal was to relocate and document the important places Seton had visited 108 years earlier. The resulting film includes Seton's 1907 photos and drawings supplemented by contemporary still and video images. Most of the film's narration is provided by actors telling the story of the first expedition in the words of Seton and Preble. The narration by Seton and Preble describes the majestic scenery and the wildlife paradise they encountered. While this film is primarily a historic recounting, it does include an environmental message. Aylmer's scenery remains as breathtaking now as it was then, but the wildlife is largely absent-an outcome of climate disruption and other causes. The Aylmer film reintroduces an artist/naturalist whose adventures are as compelling today as they were when first published.
