Remembering John Bolz: Grip, Father, & IATSE Local 52 Loss

Ever wondered about the unsung heroes who bring cinematic magic to life? John Bolz, though not a household name, was one such pivotal figure, whose contributions to the world of film and television deserve to be remembered and celebrated.

John Bolz's journey began on November 19, 1970, in the United States. From an early age, his passion for science and technology was evident, setting the stage for a career that would blend creativity with technical expertise. Growing up in a close-knit family as the youngest of four siblings, John developed a strong work ethic and a keen interest in how things worked. This curiosity led him to excel in school and eventually carve out a unique niche for himself in the entertainment industry. His life, though tragically cut short on May 10, 2010, in Stanfordville, New York, left an indelible mark on those who knew him and the projects he touched.
