Christian Stavrakis

Christian Constantine Stavrakis (born June 6, 1971) is an American fine artist, filmmaker and writer. An authority on the works of filmmaker George A. Romero, Stavrakis sculpted the bronze bust of Romero which was installed at the Monroeville Mall near Pittsburgh, PA on the 40th anniversary of the filming of Dawn of the Dead. He also appears on several DVD commentary tracks as a historian and moderator, notably the 1999 BMG release of Dawn of the Dead and the 2000 release of Knightriders by Anchor Bay Entertainment. In the latter, Romero himself states that "Chris has an encyclopedic knowledge of my films."
