Biography

Jeff Springer was born in an abandoned town in the California desert, grew up in Hawaii, and studied at USC Film School. After working at a rundown film studio in Russia, he began editing for major companies such as NBC, Paramount, Warner Bros, and Capitol Records. Eventually, he worked at Lucasfilm's Skywalker Ranch, editing behind-the-scenes documentaries for a science fiction prequel that received mixed reviews.

Seeking the unexpected, he directed the unconventional feature documentary Plagues and Pleasures on the Salton Sea (2004), narrated by indie film legend John Waters. The film was showcased at 200 film festivals worldwide, won 37 Best Documentary awards, and aired on the Sundance Channel.

Following stints in London and Berlin, Springer photographed several feature documentaries, including Everyday Sunshine: The Story of Fishbone (2010) for PBS, narrated by actor Laurence Fishburne. He lived in Afghanistan to edit With This Breath I Fly (2021), a documentary about women imprisoned for alleged "moral crimes." He also directed and photographed multiple short documentaries and an Emmy-nominated special for Artbound (2012) on KCET in Los Angeles.

Most recently, he directed and photographed the ITVS-funded documentary Rodents of Unusual Size (2017), which explores the threat posed by giant invasive swamp rats in coastal Louisiana.
