Stanley Nelson appears as a guest on Before You Go during a career milestone: Oscar nominee. After decades of directing historical documentaries illuminating African American history through compelling interviews and a library of rare footage, Nelson, an award-winning filmmaker, made it to the big stage. Though he, co-director Traci A. Curry and his team with Firelight Media did not take the Oscar this year, he says it was truly "an honor to be nominated" and Before You Go hosts Nicole and Bryant were honored to discuss his Oscar nominated project, Attica.
Laurens Grant (American Experience: Jesse Owens), an award-winning filmmaker herself, has produced a number of Stanley Nelson's films. Grant joins the conversation and describes behind-the-scenes adventures that occur when getting the story.
It's an exciting hour--especially since the hosts appeared Live on the mic in the KBLA Talk 1580 studios.
