I first met Banks Griffin ‘01 FAV in New York while working on the RISD Athena Awards, and found his easy, confident manner to be incredibly reassuring during an intense, chaotic time.  Banks is a film maker, now living and working in Brooklyn, and I was thrilled to learn that he has had his short film, GAUGE, selected for viewing as part of the New York Film Festival.   The film will screen on Oct.11 at the Ziegfeld Theater, more info here.  Kudos to Banks!
