The series won numerous awards, including an Emmy and a Silver Hugo at the Chicago International Film Festival.

While an Executive Producer at WNET in New York, Einreinhofer was responsible for the PBS non-fiction mini-series and specials "The Future Is Now," "The Stuff of Dreams" and "Earth Tech ’92." An international co-production, "Earth Tech ’92" was hosted by NPR Correspondent Scott Simon from the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (popularly known as the "Earth Summit" in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Later he produced, directed and wrote "Spacewalkers: The Ultimate High-Wire Act" for the Discovery Channel.

He produced an extensive body of work in and about China. The first program was the Public TV documentary "China Now: To Get Rich Is Glorious." Later he produced "The Hidden China," which followed a group of wealthy Americans visiting China in search of investment opportunities. In "Sichuan Stories" he documented the long-term work being done in rural western China by internationally known NGO Save The Children.

"So Very Far From Home" was a 2005 American-Chinese co-production. It told the stories of five American children, each of whom was stranded in Japanese-occupied China during World War II. Sent to brutal prison camps, their experiences helped form the basis for Steven Spielberg’s epic film "Empire of the Sun."

Probably his best-known project was "Beyond Beijing," a four-part documentary series tied to the 2008 Summer Olympics. Distributed internationally, the series was seen in 42 countries.

In 2012, he was Executive Producer of "Every Day Is A Holiday," a one-hour documentary that followed a young Chinese-American woman as she discovered her father’s hidden, heroic past. The program was broadcast nationally on more than 200 PBS television stations.
