Biography edit

Brian Clyde was born and raised in Manhattan. He graduated from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts in 1999 with a BFA in Film Production. His senior thesis, Criminal Obsession, won Best Short Narrative at the Seattle Underground Film Festival in 2000. This caught the eye of filmmaker Roger Corman,[2] who decided to finance Clyde's first feature, Rage and Discipline, which Clyde wrote and directed. Rage and Discipline received a favorable review from Ronnie Scheib of Variety[3] and an Honorable Mention at the African Diaspora Film Festival.

Clyde went on to direct two more feature films[4] for Roger Corman and then completed Growing, a feature-length documentary about small, sustainable farms in the Hudson Valley region of New York State.[5]
