Alum Andrew Saunderson scores dream job

For alum Andrew Saunderson BA ‘08, life after graduation has been anything but ordinary.

For alum Andrew Saunderson BA ‘08, life after graduation has been anything but ordinary. After being recruited to Lewis & Clark to play baseball in 2004, Saunderson discovered where his passions lay: in film-making. As a communications major, Saunderson took a documentary form class his senior year and was immediately hooked. When director Brian Lindstrom gave a presentation to his class, Saunderson asked him about any possible job opportunities or internships. The rest is history.

Andrew served as the production assistant for Alien Boy, a feature length documentary  about Portland resident James Chasse, who died in September 2006 while in police custody.  Alien Boy will premiere at film festivals in the Spring of 2009.
