"The Directors Guild of America mourns the passing of National Board member and UPM Duncan Henderson. A DGA member for over 40 years, Duncan's level of passion, service and commitment was beyond exemplary – and for that we honored him with the Frank Capra Achievement Award in 2020 as a mark of his extraordinary dedication. No matter how massive the fi lm, whether The Perfect Storm, Home Alone 2 or DGA and Academy Award-nominated features Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World and Dead Poet's Society, Duncan was always available as a leader, a mentor and a friend. He gave the same wise counsel and thoughtful consideration to award-winning directors and the production assistant on her fi rst industry job. It is diffi cult to overstate how much Duncan meant to the DGA and his fellow members. His love for his Guild and its members shone brightly through his outstanding leadership and 16 years of service as a Board member, as a longstanding member of the Western AD/UPM Council (including a term as Council Chair), and fi ve-time member of the DGA Negotiations Committee. Additionally, Duncan was proud to give back to the organization that helped usher him into the industry and the Guild serving as a Trustee on the DGA- Producer Assistant Directors Training Program since 2004. Our thoughts are with Duncan's wife Michele, his children Jessica, Ian, Fiona and Ivy, and his many colleagues and friends. He will be deeply missed."

Wimble to 1AD Kea Zemans to 1AD IN MEMORIAM James Caan, DIR Ernest Frankel, DIR Duncan S. Henderson, UPM Louis P. Levine, DIR Curtis A. Schnell, DIR Glen Trotiner, 1AD Associate Director Joyce Thomas refl ects on her 30-year career as an Associate Director with CBS and her distinguished service as a Guild leader. Thomas on what she has gained from serving the Guild: "I think the more involved I am with the Guild, the more I learn about the different contracts and the different issues at the different stations, the different issues with the Directors and the successes of the Guild. Whether it's with negotiations and gaining ground with streaming, it's an education. And to me, that the more people who come, the better the Guild is. I also think Zoom really, really helped people see how much our Guild does. I hope that I give back as much as I get. I just always feel like I get a lot but I hope that I can still teach or give back to someone else as they come into the Guild to let them know, 'Don't give up, don't be frustrated. If you want to see change, then you have to be a part of that change.'" View more excerpts and interviews in the Visual History Collection via the link on the homepage of www.dga.org.
