He is known for an extensive body of documentary work including Commitment to Life, Boulevard! A Hollywood Story, The Fabulous Allan Carr, Tab Hunter Confidential, I Am Divine, Vito, Wrangler: Anatomy of an Icon and Spine Tingler! The William Castle Story.
Schwarz was born in New York City and is a graduate of SUNY Purchase Film Department.
His senior thesis documentary was Al Lewis in the Flesh, a short film profiling actor Al Lewis, famous for playing Grampa on the television series The Munsters.
The film observes Lewis as he interacts with the public at his Bleecker Street restaurant, Grampa's Bella Gente.
Schwarz' first job in the film industry was as an apprentice editor on The Celluloid Closet, Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman's film adaptation of Vito Russo's seminal book.
Schwarz's work on this project would later bridge into the development of his own documentary about Russo, titled simply Vito.
The film was nominated for "Outstanding Documentary" at the 27th GLAAD Media Awards.
The film is about Dickson Hughes and Richard Stapley, two young composers who are hired by movie star Gloria Swanson to adapt a musical version of Billy Wilder's 1950 film Sunset Boulevard.

In 1998, Schwarz was hired to edit a documentary about the making of Gus Van Sant's controversial remake of Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho.
Psycho Path was included on the Universal Pictures Home Entertainment DVD release of Psycho, and was Schwarz's first foray into the burgeoning world of DVD bonus features, also known as value added material (VAM).
As the DVD-Video format was introduced to the public, all the major studios began offering making-of featurettes and audio commentaries on their discs as an incentive to consumers to replace movies they already owned on VHS or laserdisc.
Schwarz capitalized on this moment to segue into producing original bonus content, and soon became one of the leading producers in this field.
In 2000, Schwarz founded the Los Angeles-based production house, Automat Pictures.

Following Hunter's participation in I Am Divine, Schwarz was approached by Hunter's partner, Allan Glaser, about adapting Hunter's best-selling autobiography, Tab Hunter Confidential: The Making of a Movie Star (2005, co-written with Eddie Muller), into a documentary feature of same name.
The film features extensive interviews with Hunter, as well as friends and associates such as John Waters, Debbie Reynolds, Clint Eastwood, and George Takei.
In 2007, Schwarz began to segue into producing independent documentary features, the first being Spine Tingler! The William Castle Story about legendary Hollywood showman William Castle, who specialized in producing low-budget shockers.
The film premiered at the 2007 American Film Institute's AFI Fest and was awarded the Audience Award for Best Documentary.
In 2008, Schwarz directed the feature documentary Wrangler: Anatomy of an Icon, which focused on the life and career of porn star Jack Wrangler, who became a superstar in both the gay and straight markets before marrying singer Margaret Whiting and retiring from the porn industry.
The film won a GayVN Awards in 2009 for Best Alternative Release by TLA Releasing.
Wrangler died soon after its launch on the festival circuit in 2009.
His next feature, Vito, focused on the life of Vito Russo, gay activist, film scholar, author and major figure in the fight against AIDS.
