Steak Night
Despite being forced to live on a ventilator in his battle with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease), Mark Angelos never lost his love for good food. A huge Greek presence and great friend to those who knew him, I filmed Mark for one day in August, 2008 and came up with this piece, which is most definitely dedicated to his memory. Shot, edited and produced by Morgan Kirkham, music "Arabia" by Jerry Garcia and David Grisman.

The Angelos family of Stony Brook, Connecticut (and Maine) joined forces on April 19, 2009 for their annual Greek Easter celebration.
