Nigel Finch
Nigel Finch (1949–1995), filmmaker and television editor, was best known as co-editor of the BBC’s outstanding arts/music anthology program Arena. His documentaries included “My Way” and “The Private Life of the Ford Cortina”; His mock opera “The Vampyr” won the Prix Italia in 1993.
When he succumbed to complications from AIDS, Finch was putting the finishing touches on his feature-film debut, “Stonewall”, a gripping docudrama of the events leading up to the famous riot between drag queens and police in 1969 in New York.
