Seth Kramer, Daniel A. Miller, and Jeremy Newberger are Ironbound Films. Headquartered in an old inn on the Hudson River opposite West Point, Ironbound creates documentaries for theaters, television, and the web. Our most recent documentary, Heading Home: The Tale of Team Israel, won eight film festival awards and is still in theaters across the country. “It’s hard to imagine a true-life underdog tale more engaging than Heading Home,” raved the Los Angeles Times, “a winning David vs. Goliath baseball documentary that covers all the crowd-pleasing bases.”
Our previous documentary was The Anthropologist. Hailed as “utterly winning” by the Los Angeles Times and “stealthily insightful” by The New York Times, The Anthropologist premiered at DOC NYC, screened at more than 50 film festivals, and won numerous awards. It hit theaters care of Argot Pictures in 2016 and maintains a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Before that, Évocateur: The Morton Downey Jr. Movie premiered at Tribeca, hit theaters care of Magnolia Pictures, and aired on CNN in 2015. It was a New York Times Critics’ Pick and chosen in 2013 as best documentary by NY1, a top-ten movie by LA Weekly, and a top-ten documentary by USA Today and the International Press Academy.
We also produced and directed The New Recruits. It profiles social entrepreneurs in Kenya, India, and Pakistan using market principles to fight poverty. Narrated by Rainn Wilson, The New Recruits aired on PBS and in 2011 was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Business and Economic Reporting.
Our documentary The Linguists is the world’s first look at how languages become endangered, and how scientists document, archive, and help return them to use. The first film funded by the National Science Foundation ever to premiere at Sundance, The Linguists aired on PBS and in 2010 was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Science and Technology Programming.
Seth was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Historical Programming for Resistance: Untold Stories of Jewish Partisans (PBS, 2002). Daniel was nominated for The Trial of Adolf Eichmann (PBS, 1997).
Seth is an Artvark (University of the Arts in Philadelphia, 1996), Daniel a Brunonian (Brown University, 1994.5), and Jeremy a Great Dane (SUNY Albany, 1995). They are all dads: of Lillian, Sander and Asa, and Samson and Annabelle, respectively. They live within play-date proximity in the Hudson Valley, New York.
