For more than 50 years, Richard Grell has been hand-crafting Windsor chairs on his Hudson, Ohio property. His museum-quality chairs are owned by institutions, businesses and individuals across the country, including famous actors, musicians, Fortune 500 CEOs and presidents. The Master Craftsman is an intimate portrait of an American craftsman and artist that has never compromised quantity for quality, and how that has impacted his life and career in today's landscape of mass production.
South of Springfield’s debut documentary netted J.S. Phillips (credited as Phillip James Sieb) and his co-producer, Philip Leiter, two Central Great Lakes Chapter Emmy nominations...
... and one win.
