Gilbert Named a Top Chicago Storyteller

Peter Gilbert is man of many talents.  He is a documentary filmmaker and cinematographer, a DFP Professor of Practice, and a producer of independent films. This diverse skill set did not go unnoticed by Newcity Film. The site, which covers movie making in Chicago, recently named Gilbert to its list of top 50 film artists in Chicago.

In putting together its Film 50 2014 list, Newcity was looking for “exemplars of the multi-hyphenate talents… who aren’t juggling multiple careers, but living them as full, admirable, even enviable creative lives.”  A very fitting description of Gilbert, who splits his time between Wake Forest and his hometown of Chicago.  Gilbert shares top ten honors with Steve James, Bill Murray and Joe Swanberg.
