Brad Mays Biography

Brad Mays is one of the most popular and richest Filmmaker who was born on May 30, 1955 in St. Louis, Missouri, United States.

The following year, Mays’ feature documentary I Grew Up in Princeton had its premiere showing in Princeton, New Jersey. The film, described in one Princeton newspaper as a “deeply personal ‘coming-of-age story’ that yields perspective on the role of perception in a town that was split racially, economically and sociologically”, is a portrayal of life in the venerable university town during the tumultuous period of the late sixties through the early seventies. Featuring interviews with over 60 artists, political activists, educators, historians, musicians and others, the film deals with the town’s past struggles with racism, political unrest and the still- controversial shutdown of the Institute for Defense Analysis (IDA) during the anti-Vietnam War student strike – both university and high school – in the days immediately following the Kent State shootings of 1970.

During the early 1970s, Mays became involved in the performing arts during a professional internship at the McCarter Theater in Princeton, New Jersey. When his family moved to Maryland in the wake of difficulties resulting from his participation in anti-war demonstrations, Mays became heavily involved in the Baltimore experimental theater scene and, at the age of eighteen, began directing at the Corner Theatre ETC.
