The year before moving to Los Angeles, Guillaume was doing research and translations in Paris on two ambitious non-fiction projects, Yves Jeuland’s extensive documentary: Charlie Chaplin, The Genius of Liberty – on the artist’s career, social activism and life controversies, while also helping out on the last season of Serge Viallet’s award-winning series, Mysteries in the Archives, in collaboration with the Sherman Grinberg Film Library. Guillaume has been an active AMIA member ever since he joined the organization in 2020. His active involvement led him to be appointed to tri-chair the Advocacy Committee of the AMIA Board with Valeria Dávilla Gronros and Casey Davis Kaufman. Guillaume is also an active member of the International Sub-Committee of the Continuing Education Advisory Task Force and the Oral History Committee. He co-founded the AMIA Student Chapter at INAsup – the French National Audiovisual Institute, from which he recently graduated with a Master’s in Audiovisual Heritage Management.
