States. Paul founded Storytellers International in 2009. The 501c3
non-profit organization produces feature length documentary films,
telling stories from around the world. As President and Director of
most productions for the organization, his goal is to build an online,
fanatic audience for documentary films through his community website
DocumentaryTV.com. In addition to promoting the films he and other
independent producers create; the organization actively solicits story
ideas from a growing community at DocumentaryTV.com. Anyone can pitch a
story they would like to see Storytellers produce. Paul's goal is to
inspire the public to tell him what is important to them, and most
importantly, to hear from those who are close to the stories and the
people involved. To date, films by Storytellers have taken Paul to
India and Kosovo and throughout the US to meet his vision of bringing a
world of stories to a US audience.
