For 31 years he worked in the Smithsonian’s Motion Picture Unit as a producer\, director\, photography director\, cinematographer\, videographer\, editor\, and still photographer.

His work resulted in over 131 films and videos used in exhibits and broadcast media; he received over 135 awards for those films. \nHere are two of John’s films to enjoy: \n\n“Dream Windows\, Reflections in the Japanese Garden” (1995) – https://youtu.be/xWcmuk2tN7M\n“Generation on the Wind” (1979) – https://vimeo.com/161535630\n\nIn honor of John W.
