Stephen Berkeley Lewis
Director/Cinematographer/Editor/Sound Design
Stephen B. Lewis was born in Berkeley, California, raised in Evanston, Illinois, and attended film school at USC. A short film he made screened at the Sundance Film Festival in 1992.
Stephen moved to San Francisco where he had a long career in the video game industry as an artist, animator, designer, and programmer. After a mid-life career switch he became a clinical hypnotherapist, his current day job in San Francisco. He was recently awarded a US patent as a co-inventor of a device to help induce calm states through guided breathing.
Stephen's return to film-making coincided with a chance encounter with photographer Arthur Tress on a Bay Area ferry boat. The end result, "Arthur Tress: Water's Edge", is his first feature length documentary.
