R. Stanley “Stan” Woodward has two passions – documentary film making and the folk cultures he captures with his camera. For more than 40 years, Woodward has advocated for the traditional arts and folklife of South Carolina. His feature-length films and short documentaries about foodways, traditional music, and camp meetings have brought widespread recognition to folk artists and provided access to a variety of folk traditions in danger of being lost. Several of his documentaries have been broadcast by South Carolina ETV, as well as PBS stations in other Southern states.
