Tim Newman specializes in Canadian documentary cinema with a particular interest in the evolution of a West Coast documentary tradition that has produced internationally renown filmmakers such as Allan King. He is a graduate of the MA program in Film Studies at York University where his research examined the collaborative models within two related filmmaking institutions: the CBUT Vancouver Film Unit and Allan King Associates. Currently, he is a doctoral student in the Arts Education program within the Faculty of Education at Simon Fraser University. There he is expanding his research into the sociology of the arts with an emphasis on how creative interchanges amongst artists and intellectuals innovate aesthetic practices that, in turn, serve to demarcate artistic institutions.
