Brad Meyer:
IT’S FINALLY HERE!!! After months of planning, days of shooting, and over a hundred hours in post, my short documentary film, Out of Print, is finally complete! This is my second final short film. A huge thanks to Robert M. Katzman for being such a captivating man, and a special thanks to Sofia Kerpan for being a kick ass documentary partner: she deserves way more credit than I gave her. I kindly ask you all to take several minutes to indulge in the fascinating, emotional, and inspiring world of Bob and his collection in “Out of Print”. ENJOY

Robert M. Katzman My appreciation for your compassionate film about a topic and situation few people can understand, or worse, know about at all. Thanks to you Brad, and of course, to the lovely Prom Queen, Sofia.

I didn’t make this film, I was the subject. The filmakers are from The Columbia College Film School. It is the second documentary, the first visible on my Oldzines.com site made by DePaul University Film School. That one is 14.5 minutes long. People tell me they find them fascinating. To me, they are eulogies while I’m still here and very sad. I watch them and am reminded how powerless I am to be unable to effect change.

You won’t see it that way, so I hope you will look at them.  They are serious history of what is disappearing day by day in America:News printed on paper in America.
