The accclaimed documentary filmmaker St. Claire Bourne — he directed film portraits of Paul Robeson, Gordon Parks, Langston Hughes and Amiri Baraka (I was fortunate to see Bourne and Baraka discuss the film during the Afro-Punk film and music festival at the Brooklyn Academy of Music) — has passed away.
For an obituary see here and for a short video interview with Bourne in June 2006, see here.
