Working with Happy Marshall Productions directing a new web series called “American Doers”. Each episode features an everyday person who is willing to work hard to go after their dreams. These people are super inspiring. They don’t just talk about or dream about things, they work hard and make it a reality. Excited to share more in the coming weeks. Series launches in October on People.com.
Busy Summer
Lots of exciting things happening. Recently interviewed Mamie “Peanut” Johnson, the only WOMAN to pitch in the Negro Leagues. After the All American Girls Professional Baseball League (A League of their Own) wouldn’t give her a try out because she was black, she played 3 seasons for the Indianapolis Clowns. While playing professional baseball with Indianapolis she had the honor of getting some pitching tips from the likes of Satchel Paige.
Been busy with meetings about distribution and sponsorship for “The Other Boys of Summer”. Looking forward to sharing details soon.
In other news, Baby Makes 3, a series I directed for PBS, is airing through out the country. I’ve been shooting a documentary for A&E that comes out in the Fall. I’m keeping busy with smaller projects for interesting startups and new brands. Always on the look out for new connections and fun projects.
Hope everyone is enjoying the summer.
