Hi, I’m Brendon. I’m doing all right, thanks for asking!

I was born in San Antonio, Texas in 1984, but I’ve been living in New York since I graduated from Dartmouth, where I wrote a thesis on representations of youth, space and gender in American crime films and served as student director of the Dartmouth Film Society.

Since graduating, I’ve held a number of jobs, some of which I’ve even liked. I'm currently a first-year student in the MFA filmmaking program at Columbia University.

I used to blog more than I do now. Film school is a bit of a time suck.

I don't tweet, but if I ever do, it will be here. Don't hold your breath.

I have a wonderful girlfriend, Alex. She is awesome. She blogs here.

Some of my favorite films include Badlands, Imitation of Life, Cria Cuervos, The Night of the Hunter and Killer of Sheep.
