Honoree's Remarks

Positive I.D.” was written, produced, and directed by the late UTA Professor Emeritus, Writer in Residence, and Department Chair, Andy Anderson. “Positive I.D.” is a masterful feature made on a modest budget. This movie is a short course in independent filmmaking and an important lesson in how an artist’s vision can be realized. At various times Andy was my instructor, mentor, colleague, and friend over the course of more than 40 years. His influence and assistance was critical in my becoming an artist and teacher.
