David Uttam Lawlor

Arts and Culture Producer

Born with a camera in hand (okay, maybe not born—but close enough), David has spent his life capturing history, arts, and culture through a documentary lens. His journey started with a gifted camera from his grandparents, and since then, he’s been on a mission to bring forgotten stories to light—sometimes literally, in the case of abandoned buildings. Based in downtown Providence, RI, David is a proud advocate for all things Rhode Island, from its rich industrial past to the simple joys of hot weenies and coffee milk.
