DESCRIPTION:\n	With Arun Chaudhary in person \n	\n	Followed by book signing
  \n\n\n	From the early months of the 2008 campaign through the first years
  of the Obama administration\, former NYU professor Arun Chaudhary had a u
 nique perspective on the president of the United States. He was the first 
 person ever to hold the role of official White House videographer. “I’m so
 rt of like President Obama’s wedding videographer\,” he explains\, “if eve
 ry day was a wedding with the same groom but a constantly rotating set of 
 hysterical guests.” \n\n\n	Some of the moments Chaudhary captures are smal
 l\, like the president throwing warm-up pitches deep inside Busch Stadium 
 in St. Louis before the All-Star Game. Some are intensely emotional\, as w
 hen Obama comforts a grieving teenager whose father has died in a devastat
 ing tornado. And some are just plain bizarre\, like getting thrown out of 
 the Indian parliament by his belt\, or being trapped in a White House bath
 room while Obama conducts a YouTube town hall on the other side of the doo
 r. \n\n\n	Film and politics have been intertwined ever since the first Edi
 son reels rattled in projection halls a century ago. But with the advent o
 f new technologies and a new public that is hungry for images of their lea
 ders\, Chaudhary has been in the right place at the right time to particip
 ate in the interplay of film and politics at the very highest level. Chaud
 hary will talk about his experience\, which he chronicles in his new book\
 , First Cameraman: Documenting the Obama Presidency in Real Time\, and he 
 will present some unforgettable video clips. The program will be followed 
 by a book signing in the Moving Image Store. \n	\n	\n	\n	Free with Museum 
 admission. \n	\n
