Ajit Anthony Prem is the director of Banana Bus.

Ajit has this to say about Banana Bus on his website: "My good friend, JaCynthia Shepherd, recalls her experiences on the public school bus system. It seems she received much of her education while riding to and from school.  The beautiful song is “She Was a Girl, She Was in Love” by Matt Baldwin. You can purchase it on iTunes . You can check out a slideshow of some of the photos here."

Ajit is a filmmaker, editor and a video blogger. He was born in India, his formative years were in New York City and has recently moved to North Carolina. He is a graduate of St. Francis College where he won a grant for a short film. He has worked extensively as a documentary editor. His editing credits include Two Bells/ Two Worlds featuring Susan Sarandon, Race or Reason that premiered at the Margaret Mead Festival and Riding in Stride which is currently playing on PBS. He has recently completed a short film titled Dear Stranger� which premiered at the Annapolis Film Festival. You can see his podcasts at this link, and his blog here.
