Over the last thirty years, the Emmy-Award winning writer and director Stephen Ives has established himself as one of the nation's leading documentary filmmakers.

In 1987, he worked with filmmaker Ken Burns, as a consulting producer on the ground-breaking series, The Civil War and Baseball. His profile of the innovative Cornerstone Theater Company, aired on HBO in the fall of 1999, and his portrait of the world's smallest opera company, Amato: A Love Affair with Opera, earned him a nomination from The Director's Guild of America for Outstanding Directorial Achievement. His profile of the 1930's thoroughbred Seabiscuit, won a prime-time Emmy award, and Reporting America at War, his three-hour series about American war correspondents, was described by the Los Angeles Times as "television that matters...a visual document of power and clarity." He has directed more than a dozen acclaimed films for PBS' American Experience and his six-hour series The Great War, was seen by 10 million viewers when it aired on PBS in 2017. His writing for the series earned him an award from the Writers Guild of America. Ives was one of the directors of the PBS series American Veteran, and Citizen Hearst, which both aired in 2021.
