Since then, they have produced four non-fiction feature films and numerous documentaries for television and corporate clients. They are among the most highly honored non-fiction filmmakers, having been awarded, collectively or individually, two Academy Awards, multiple Emmy Awards, three Peabody Awards and a Guggenheim Fellowship.
