Name: Henry Walker Sayen…but you can call him Walker.
Hometown: Lawrenceville, New Jersey
Major: Film Production
Year of graduation: 2016
Dream job: Director of feature independent films.

Favorite films: Once Upon a Time in the West, The Iron Giant, It’s a Wonderful Life.
Biggest inspirations: Sergio Leone, Alfred Hitchcock, and his dad, a documentary filmmaker who got him into movies.
When he’s not working on films: You can find him drawing or painting, reading Stephen King books, playing his melodica (a combination of a flute and piano), or exploring nature. (He’s attended wilderness survival camp.)
Looks for in a lady: Humor, intelligence, looks, and “someone who can tolerate my weirdness”.
Dream date: Ice skating, dancing, (he took dance lessons as a kid!) or just a “night on the town”. However, dinner and a movie are always “a classic”.
Thoughts on…
Emerson Confessional: “Sometimes, it can be very amusing. It’s interesting that it has both real genuine feelings and also hysterical stories.”
Emerson Ships: “I think it started out sort of as a serious thing, but it’s turned into a sort of hilarious thing.”
Em Café: “I don’t have an on-campus meal plan, so I have not been in here or any of the cafes at all, but it seems nice.”
Green Line: “It’s very frustrating…there’s a lot of delays. It’s infuriating, but at the same time, I think it’s good for the spirits. I think it’s a good sort of learning experience, to commute every day.
