Morgan Spurlock Dies: Oscar-Nominated ‘Super Size Me’ Director Was 53


Morgan Spurlock dies: Oscar-nominated 'Super Size Me' director, 53, became one of America's most famous documentary filmmakers.

He put himself on camera, Michael Moore-style, chronicling how his weight ballooned and he suffered near catastrophic damage to his liver by subsisting on Quarter Pounder combo meals, French fries, flapjacks, breakfast sausages and the like, while slurping soft drinks. The statement continued, “He deeply valued the creative contributions of the talented people who worked on his projects, developing a cadre of freelance production professionals who came back time and again. A great lover of modern artists, Spurlock compiled an extensive art collection, which decorated the walls of his home and the Warrior Poets office in SoHo, New York.”
