Some of you may or may not know a friend of mine who was in Toronto this past year working as the production designer on the new 50 Cent move 'Get Rich or Die Tryin'. The film is directed by Oscar nominated writer and director Jim Sheridan. It is with great pleasure that i found out this past week that another film that Mark worked on 'Everything is Illuminated' will be making its North American premiere at this year's Toronto International Film Festival.

Mark has worked on a number of diverse independent features for filmmakers including Jim Sheridan, Stephen Frears and Michael Winterbottom.
Geraghty first worked with Winterbottom on "Family," made for television. He then went on to work with him on the highly acclaimed feature "Welcome to Sarajevo."
Geraghty has collaborated on two films for Jim Sheridan, the first being the award-winning feature "In America," and the second most recent film "50 Cent," currently in pre-production in New York and Toronto.
His other film credits include "Rat," "When the Sky Falls," "The Debt Collection," "Tristan and Isolde," and "The Count of Monte Cristo" (both directed by Kevin Reynolds),"The Matchmaker," "Dancing at Lughnasa," and "The Van" for director Stephen Frears.
He began his career on the feature "My Left Foot" in 1989, on which he worked as Assistant Art Director.
