To celebrate his artistic achievements, Greenfield will receive the Fargo Film Festival’s most distinguished honor, the Ted M. Larson Award.

Originally hailing from Kentucky, Greenfield’s career in the film industry has taken him all over the world. He steadily climbed the ranks from production assistant to production manager to producer/executive producer. Greenfield has worked with some of the industry’s top talent, including Quentin Tarantino, Jeff Nichols, Yorgos Lanthimos, Sam Levinson, Lena Dunham, Jon Favreau, Spike Lee, and Frank Darabont. Greenfield served as executive producer for season two of HBO’s smash hit series Euphoria, which garnered 16 Emmy nominations. He is currently working as executive producer on director Ryan Coogler’s newest film.

About IMMACULATE:
