New York based filmmaker Rob Meyer grew up in Newton, Massachusetts with dreams of being a field scientist or wildlife filmmaker as a child. Before going to film school at Nyu he worked on documentaries for PBS's Nova and National Geographic.

Rob Meyer will see his coming-of-age, award-winning short expand into feature film, so we can assume that today's casting mention of Bryan Cranston and Ben Kingsley are the supporting players needed to push the project along little further. A Birder’s Guide To Everything, Crossroads Films' (David Gordon Green's Snow Angels) next project will start lensing this Summer. - Rob Meyer will see his coming-of-age, award-winning short expand into feature film, so we can assume that today's casting mention of Bryan Cranston and Ben Kingsley are the supporting players needed to push the project along little further.
