IDA honors Wexler with career award
Haskell Wexler will receive the International Documentary Assn.'s 2006 Career Achievement Award, honoring his extraordinary work in nonfiction film. The presentation will be made Dec. 8 at the DGA in Los Angeles. "We could rightly present two career achievement awards to Haskell Wexler," said IDA president Diane Estelle Vicari, referring to his parallel accomplishments as a fiction cinematographer. "He has inspired a generation of documentary filmmakers to be uncompromising in their pursuit of the truth regarding the crucial issues of our times." Wexler has compiled more than 30 documentary credits, including The Bus, Brazil: A Report on Torture, The Trial of the Catonsville Nine, At the Max and Bus Riders Union, the latter an in-depth probe of the neglect of public transportation relied on by the Los Angeles working class.
