Peter Bradford, who has died aged 99, was a documentarist who made more than 100 films in a 40-year career – mostly designed to explain, teach, advocate and promote – for government departments, quangos, charities and companies.
Born in Bradford Abbas, Dorset, Peter was the son of
Job Bradford, an accountant, and his wife, May (nee Tremellen). He attended Bryanston school – where he recalled an inspirational visit by the documentarist Basil Wright – followed by the photography course at the Bauhaus-influenced Reimann School of Art in London.
