Local filmmaker Corey Robinson has documented a long-hidden piece of Kodak history: its role in the development of spying technology used during the Cold War.
The Gambit program was something Kodak workers were not allowed to talk about until recently. Robinson detailed their story and a recent gathering of these “stateside spymasters” in the short film you can see in the video box below.
A Greece, NY native, Corey Robinson is a graduate student at the Newhouse School at Syracuse University studying Documentary Film and History. With an undergraduate degree from Newhouse as well, he has studied and produced non-fiction films for several years. He is currently in production on a film about lost wilderness artist Everett Ruess due out Fall 2012.
