Martin Greenfield, tailor
Fantastic short film by Galen Summer about Martin Greenfield, a bespoke tailor in Brooklyn. He immigrated from Germany in the late 1940’s after the war and losing his family in a concentration camp. Persevering the rough neighborhood where his factory would be pillaged for the copper in his electrical wires, he has found himself making suits for many dignitaries, US Presidents included. He has also done ample work for the fantastic labels of Freeman’s Sporting Club, Band of Outsiders, and Brooks Brothers, among others. A tastefully-shot documentary of an inspiring Gentleman.
