He's an anti-imperialist, friendly with the Communists, and somehow survives all that and is shuttling between Baghdad and Damascus depending on which way the winds are blowing with the Baathists and their competition. But he's not a regime stooge, he's independent.

Dance has given my life meaning, energy, interests, friendships, learning experiences, and most of all an appreciation for nature - a connection with the processes of nature and it became an insightful part of creativity. It became the lens through which I look at life. I'm part of this dance right now!"

Rick Carter has done more than 15 of my directed films as a production designer.
