Henry Singer

Henry Singer is one of Britain's most critically acclaimed documentary directors. He has won or been nominated for every major British documentary award, including the BAFTA, Royal Television Society, Grierson, Broadcast, Broadcasting Press Guild, the Televisual as well as the Emmy, and his films have been screened at festivals around the world. Among his prize-winning feature length films are The Falling Man about a photograph of someone who jumped or fell from the World Trade Center on 9/11, The Untold Story of Baby P, about the death of a seventeen month toddler in north London, and The Blood of the Rose, about the brutal murder of the filmmaker and conservationist Joan Root in Kenya. Broadcast Magazine has named Singer one of the top ten directors working in British television. In its citation, the magazine said: ‘Singer is perhaps the most intimate, sensitive filmmaker working today. He does not just observe his subjects but seeks to take us inside them, to live with them and make us see their perspectives.’
