Brad Osborne

Brad Osborne got a taste for filmmaking in 1999, when he was the boom operator on a short film. By 2001, he had completed his own first film, "Hall of Mirrors" (2001), which he wrote, directed, and scored. That start led to a varied career behind the camera, mainly as a director of documentaries like "Shock" (2007), about electroshock therapy, and "The Real Great Debaters" (2008) about the first African-American debate team to compete in a national championship. Osborne also performed the narration. After a break to direct the feature film "Chariot" (2013), Osborne returned to documentaries and in 2014 made "Killing JFK: 50 Questions Answered" (Reelz, 2014). This would be the first of many collaborations with Reelz, which included the series' "Screen Machines" (Reelz, 2014) about building cars, motorcycles, etc, for film and TV; "Murder Made Me Famous" (Reelz, 2015-), hour-long explorations into famous murders, with re-enactments; and the spin off, "Scandal Made Me Famous" (Reelz, 2016-17).
