The Gulf War-A Television History, was produced by BBC filmmaker Eamonn Matthews who heavily reported on the Gulf War and its aftermath. Until he was expelled by the Iraqi government, Matthews reported from Baghdad on the air war. He later filmed events in Kuwait, where he made a series of award-winning BBC films.

Matthews is one of the top news documentary makers for the BBC and was the Senior Broadcast Producer of the nightly public affairs show Newsnight up to 1993.

Matthews has worked in many trouble spots, including spending six months with the mujahideen inside Afghanistan making a critically-acclaimed BBC film. His most recent documentaries (broadcast both in the U.S. and in the U.K.) examined the conflict in the former "Yugoslavia: Sarajevo-Forcing the Peace" and "The Siege of Mostar."
