Tom approached Eric to produce, shoot and edit a video celebrating former New York Knick Willis Reed and his fundraising work with the groundbreaking
Yale/New Haven Cardiology Department. The segment includes an interview with former New York Knick, New Jersey Senator and Allen and Company deal maker Bill Bradley.
