Russell Smith has led an exceptional life. Leaving home at age 16, he eventually graduated law school, creating a successful multi-national law firm specializing in entertainment law. He is perhaps best known in the legal world as Sacha Baron Cohen's main counsel. But Russ now spends most of his waking hours producing and directing films, most recently a soon-to-be-out documentary on Refuge Recovery, a non-profit that keeps those in recovery clean through Buddhist meditation. In this 75 minute conversation with Russell, we were surprised to learn that he takes no credit for any of his accomplishments.
