Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman - 2010

Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman

Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman's partnership making non-fiction and feature films began in 1987 when they opened an office in a former convent and Catholic girl's school in San Francisco. Rob had already established himself with his work on the landmark documentary "WORD IT OUT and with his Oscar-winning documentary THE TIMES OF HARVEY MILK Jeffrey first worked with Rob as a consultant on THE TIMES OF HARVEY MILK, and again as editor on a PBS show Rob directed.

Their creative styles clicked, and they formed Telling Pictures. Their first collaboration was another Oscar-winner, COMMON THREADS: STORIES FROM THE QUILT. All told, they have produced four non-fiction feature films including the Emmy Award winning THE CELLULOID CLOSET for HBO and PARAGRAPH 175 winner of the 2000 Sundance Jury prize for directing.

Their new film HOWL-their first dramatic narrative-features James Franco leading a stellar cast that includes Jon Hamm, Mary-Louise Parker, David Strathairn and Jeff Daniels. HOWL premiered at this year's Sundance and Berlin Film Festivals, and will be released later this year. Between them they have received two Academy Awards, multiple Emmy Awards, three Peabody Awards, a Guggenheim Fellowship and a Rockefeller Fellowship.
