I thank the York Public Library for the opportunity to screen video clips and discuss my approach to producing family biographies, says producer Neil Novello.  Using basic film industry techniques and production values together with family photos, scrapbooks, slides and 16mm home movie footage, Mr. Novello creates customized, feature-length biographies that have put in perspective a family’s experiences.  “In a way, I’m a family’s personalized Ken Burns of PBS’s Civil War fame”, says Mr. Novello.

Mr. Novello’s video clips range from a couple’s “almost first date” to special events to experiences during World War II.  “The video clips have a certain universality to them”.

“You don’t have to be a celebrity to have an experience that’s important to remember,” Mr. Novello says.   A Life Remembered is a Life Honored, the title of the event as well as the guiding principle of Mr. Novello’s Family Bio, is sure to be entertaining, insightful and educational.
