Tom and I headed over to PuzzleTree studios on Vashon today to meet with Eric, Elaine and Pete. (More on the fruits of our conversation in a future post.) When we returned home, there was a package at the side door. What a surprise to find this beautiful plaque from our Montreal “Best Doc Feature” win […]
On New Year’s Day, I was fortunate enough to have a long, in-depth conversation about our film journey with Akena Hammagaadji on his radio program, First World Music (WVKR 91.3FM). I’m very grateful to Akena for his thoughtful questions, and for being so generous with his time! You can check out the […]

It looks like we’re managing to squeeze in one last interview before year’s end…tonight on NY’s Pacifica Radio.

ADIFF CLOSING CEREMONY TODAY, SUNDAY, DEC. 11 @ 3PM (Tickets $35) Teachers College, Columbia University – The Chapel New York, NY SCREENING WINNER PUBLIC AWARD FOR THE BEST FILM DIRECTED BY A WOMAN OF COLOR A LOT LIKE YOU
The screening event was fabulous. The picture/sound quality was phenomenal–which was particularly impressive when I realized they were projecting from my preview DVD (turns out their DVCAM deck had died a gruesome death only a few days earlier. I can only imagine how much better it would’ve looked in DV/HDCAM!) The post-screening Q&A was […]
Met with Leslie Goffe (BBC World News) at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, New York Public Library prior to our screening. We had an intensely engaging conversation that covered a lot of ground in a very short period of time. But I must admit to still being so green at […]
