About JOSH
I am a London-based producer/director of documentaries.
I cut my teeth in current affairs - working on Channel 4’s Unreported World strand - before winning my first solo commission from BBC Newsnight in 2014: about the world’s first hospital for FGM victims in Burkina Faso - which happened to be funded by a UFO-believing sect called the Raelians.
Since then, I’ve worked across major documentaries and series for the BBC, Channel 4, Channel 5, National Geographic, Sky, PBS, Arte and others. You can see my work on the home page.
I’m particularly interested in contemporary political, cultural and social history, and I’ve recently produced a landmark series on Latin America’s drug cartels (National Geographic), a documentary about the battle to put a black astronaut into space (Smithsonian Channel) and a major TV history of Cuba’s international relations since the 1959 revolution (BBC/Arte).
I’ve interviewed everyone from Cuban revolutionary heroes to Pablo Escobar’s widow, and love the different worlds with which I come into contact via documentary. I’m passionate about archive material in all of its forms, and have worked as Archive Producer across many of my projects.
I’ve also produced arts, science, food and travel docs - and have extensive foreign filming experience. I’m fluent in Spanish and Italian.
Please get in touch if you have a project you’d like to discuss!
