Life and career

Workman was born in New York City and grew up in Los Angeles. He is the son of filmmaker/editor Chuck Workman and began editing documentary projects under his father's tutelage when he was in his teenage years. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature from Columbia University.[1]

Workman's debut film, Who Is Henry Jaglom? (co-directed with Henry Alex Rubin) was presented at numerous film festivals before premiering on PBS's acclaimed documentary series POV.[2] The documentary on filmmaker Henry Jaglom has a 86% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[3]

Workman's 2014 documentary Magical Universe was released theatrically on October 31, 2014, with IFC Films.[4] The film is about reclusive outsider artist Al Carbee who created elaborate dioramas and collages featuring Barbie dolls. The film grew out of Workman's 2002 short film Carbee's Barbies and encompasses the final years of Carbee's life, a time when Workman was Carbee's closest friend and his only link to the outside world.[5] The film won several film festival awards.[6]

Workman's 2018 documentary The World Before Your Feet premiered in competition at the 2018 SXSW Film Festival[7] and was acquired by distributor Greenwich Entertainment.[8] The documentary, about Matt Green's mission to walk every street of New York City, was widely hailed upon its release.[9][10] It was a New York Times Critic's Pick,[11] a Los Angeles Times Critics Choice,[12] and has a 100% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[13] The film also marked the producing debut of actor Jesse Eisenberg.[14] The film played in theaters across the United States for over a year.[15]

Workman's 2021 documentary, Lily Topples The World, about domino toppling artist Lily Hevesh, premiered at the 2021 SXSW Film Festival where it was awarded Grand Jury Prize for Best Documentary.[16] Soon after, the film won the Audience Award for Best Documentary at the 2021 San Francisco International Film Festival.[17] Actress Kelly Marie Tran serves as an Executive Producer, which marks her producing debut.[18] In May 2021, it was announced that the documentary was a high-profile acquisition of Discovery+.[19] Celebrated by critics, the film has a 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[20]

Workman's 2023 short documentary Deciding Vote, about Assemblyman George M. Michaels and his deciding vote in New York's 1970 abortion bill, premiered at Tribeca Film Festival,[21] was released on The New Yorker,[22] was Shortlisted for the 96th Academy Awards in the Documentary Short Film category,[23] and was nominated for a News and Documentary Emmy Award for Most Outstanding Short Documentary.[24]

Workman's 2024 documentary, Secret Mall Apartment, premiered at the 2024 SXSW Film Festival[25] to wide acclaim.[26][27][28] It is about eight young Rhode Island artists who covertly built an apartment in a 750-square-foot (70 m2) empty space inside the architecture of the Providence Place Mall in 2003 after hearing an advertisement about imagining living in the mall.[29][30] The crew lived secretly within the busy mall for nearly four years.[31] Actor Jesse Eisenberg serves as an Executive Producer, a role he previously served on Workman’s The World Before Your Feet.[32][33]

In addition to being a director, Workman is known for his film editing, primarily as a sought-after editor of movie trailers for indie and documentary films.[34] He has edited over 100 movie trailers and frequently speaks about trailers and movie marketing to filmmakers and film communities throughout the world.[35][36]
