Sam acted, wrote and edited Northwestern Student Television from 1997-2001, finally taking the reigns of the show as Director in 2000-2001. Check out the “best of” sketches.

Use this post’s comments to post your own memories of Sam.

I remember talking to Meghan Dowd about various filmmaking books written by directors. I was in love with one written by David Mamet.

She talked to Sam about it, and he said that that book was okay, but crappy. That I should read the book written by Sidney Lumet. I did. He was right, it was great. (Though I still love the other book).

What are your memories?

Welcome
