DESCRIPTION:INSIDE IRAQ:  THE UNTOLD STORIES’ film premiere in San Francisco  Armed 
 only with a video camera, a press pass made at Kinko’s, and a single name 
 written on a crumpled up piece of paper; I cashed in airline miles and flew 
 to Amman, Jordan where I entered Iraq as a freelance journalist on 
 assignment for KATU-ABC TV in Portland, Oregon.    I traveled through the 
 country for two months with only a local guide, chronicling the life of the 
 Iraqi people and the US military.  I filmed unique stories the national 
 media ignores:  gun markets, bomb shelters, mine fields, hospitals, 
 schools, and villages showing the reality of life in Iraq beyond the media 
 spin.  While embedded with the US military, I actually joined a combat unit 
 and qualified as a gunner on an Abrams tank and went out on live-fire night 
 patrols along the Syrian border to gain a better understanding of what 
 it’s like to be a soldier in combat.  Inside Iraq:  The Untold Stories is 
 a feature length (84 minutes) documentary film showing a balanced look 
 behind the scenes in Iraq.    It begins it’s San Francisco premiere from 
 May 20th to May 26th with showings at 1, 4, 7, and 9:30pm daily at 
 Regal’s Galaxy Theater at 1285 Sutter Street.  As the Director, I will be 
 at every showing Friday through Sunday to introduce the film, meet the 
 audience and answer questions.  I anticipate Inside Iraq: The Untold 
 Stories will engage San Francisco audiences and help continue the important 
 discussion on U.S. policies in Iraq.   This film had a very successful 
 one-month run in Portland with many sellouts and extensive press coverage.  
 It has been shown over 122 times at private events at colleges and 
 performing arts centers in 25 states around the US since October 2004.  You
