Neil Grahn is a director/writer/producer who stays busy making documentaries and creating comedy. He started out in show business about a hundred years ago with a plucky comedy troupe called ‘Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie’, he was the showrunner for ‘Queen of the Oil Patch’ and the head writer for CBC Radio One’s ‘The Irrelevant Show’. Neil lives a split life bouncing back and forth between comedy and documentary. He’s busy this summer with a documentary series on food vendors plying the powwow trail and he’s eager to share ‘Rodeo Nation’ with the world.
