Born in Sidney, Ohio in 1982. Working with his older brother Bill, the two form the Ross Brothers filmmaking team. For their documentary 45365, a portrait of their home town, the two directors received numerous awards including Best Documentary Feature at the 2009 South by Southwest Film Festival in Austin, Texas. They followed it three years later with Tchoupitoulas (2012) about their second home of New Orleans.
