Biography
John Sullivan studied film at the San Francisco Art Institute, the School of Visual Arts in New York and in Rockport, Maine. He has worked as both director and screenwriter on several documentaries, short films, commercials, music videos and drama series' for TV. He made his feature film debut with the drama Play in 2003, but is perhaps best known for his documentaries, like the award-winning Afghanistan documentary Home of the Brave – Land of the Free from 2003, which received the Norwegian National Film Award Amanda for Best Documentary in 2004, and the (for some) provocative Porn Star? from 2007.
