An American biochemist and expert on the relationship between diet and disease. He is the Jacob Gould Schurman Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell University, where he conducted the renowned China Study, a comprehensive investigation into the effects of diet on health and disease. Campbell’s research has focused on the causation of cancer and heart disease, and he has written several influential books, including “The China Study” (2005) and “Whole” (2013). He is a strong advocate for a low-fat, whole foods, plant-based diet and has founded the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies, offering educational programs and certifications in plant-based nutrition. Campbell has been recognized for his contributions to the field of nutrition and has appeared in several documentaries, including “Forks Over Knives” (2011).
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
