Documentary Filmmaker
Robert Perkins
Robert Perkins has been making documentary films since 1987. He learned "on the job" when he made his first doc with a Super 8 camera and 110 rolls of film during a seventy-two day solo canoe journey in the Canadian arctic. Since the success of his first award winning film (Into the Great Solitude) on PBS and in England on Channel 4, he has made seven more documentaries in the vein of "Environmental Storytelling." A trilogy of three films was aired last winter on PBS under the title of One Man's Journey.
