Lynch on Lynch, edited by Chris Rodley, is the definitive work on the career of the cinematic genius behind such films as Blue Velvet, Mulholland Drive, The Elephant Man and Twin Peaks.
About the Author:
At the age of six I decided I wanted to be an artist. I graduated in Fine Art (Painting)
in 1974. Having subsequently become disillusioned with my work, but by now
completely obsessed with the movies, I began programming independent cinemas in
1977. Courtesy of Channel Four, I was able to begin making documentaries in 1983
and have been an independent filmmaker ever since. In the intervening 35 years I
have produced and/or directed over 80 arts documentaries for television and
contributed to over a dozen documentary series. I first worked with David Lynch in
1993 while making a documentary about American independent cinema. In 1996 I
spent some time on the set of Lynch's Lost Highway and made a short film for the
BBC about its making and meaning. That year Lynch and I also began working
on this book. I also worked extensively with the director David Cronenberg, making
two documentaries about his work (one in 1986 and another in 1992), as well as
editing the book Cronenberg on Cronenberg for Faber and Faber. Unlike David
Lynch, I never returned to painting. He really told me off about that.
