Brian Funck is an editor and producer of award-winning documentaries for film and television. A frequent collaborator with PBS, his work with FRONTLINE has been recognized by the Peabody Awards five times – twice as a Finalist, and three times as a Peabody Award winner for Confronting ISIS, Separated, and America and the Taliban, each of which Brian edited and produced. Other recent projects include two investigative true-crime series, My Brother's Bomber (two Emmy Awards) and Who Killed Malcolm X? (Emmy nomination), which were instrumental in the arrest of new suspects or the exoneration of old ones. Brian was editor of Poisoned Ground (three Emmy nominations); editor and co-writer of I.M. Pei: Building China Modern (CINE Golden Eagle winner): editor and co-writer of After the Fall: HIV Grows Up, which won a SIMA Award for Best Editing Documentary Short. He was also an editor on Happy Valley, which premiered at Sundance, and a contributing editor on Long Strange Trip, which was shortlisted for an Academy Award.

Brian is regularly involved in the heavy lifting stages of post-production: finding the story, combing interviews and transcripts, helping to create a workable structure. An experienced musician and music editor, he also frequently collaborates with directors and composers to help craft and edit a score that complements the film.
