Albert and David Maysles were a documentary filmmaking/brother team whose works include Salesman, Gimme Shelter and Grey Gardens. Their 1964 film on The Beatles forms the backbone of the DVD, The Beatles: The First U.S. Visit.

David Maysles, the younger brother, was born on January 10 1931 in Boston, and died in 1987.

Albert Maysles was born on November 26 1926 in Boston and has continued to make films on his own since his brother's death

Jean-Luc Godard once called Albert Maysles "the best American cameraman". He was given a lifetime achievement award at Czech film festival AFO in 2005. He is working on his own autobiographical documentary. In 2005 he founded the Maysles Institute, a nonprofit organization that provides training and apprenticeships to underprivileged individuals. Albert is a patron of Shooting People the filmmakers community which created the Albert Maysles glasses tribute website.
