Bruce Eadie spent much of his career in television, making documentary films on challenging subjects often involving state-sanctioned violence, from forced sterilisation, to the death penalty, to French complicity in the Holocaust. In 1996, he won an EMMY for his film Nuremberg on the Nuremberg Trials. In recent years, he has returned to academic work, writing about museum cultures and documentary film. He is the film section editor of The International Journal of Psychoanalysis.
