[Frameworks] Robert Todd

[Festival]

Tragic news - Experiments in Cinema was always honored to have the opportunity to screen Robert’s work and although he never made it to our event (he often talked about making the pilgrimage) I fondly recall many conversations when the two of us were in attendance at the Ann Arbor Film Festival. I’ll miss you Robert.

He had last been seen heading to Franklin Park near his home Thursday evening. Today a search party found his body in the park. No cause of death has been reported yet.
