Alphonzo, known to his friends as Zo, will share stories with us about directing giant entertainment personalties like Oprah Winfrey; and a life changing encounter with famed photographer and director, Gordon Parks. Zo tells some personal anecdotal stories about Oprah and how a movie based on an Ian Fleming novel, no not James Bond, but Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, influenced his young life and set him on the path to become one of America’s leading African American Film makers. This episode, like no other so far, reveals how storytelling is a fundamental reflection of who we are as human beings.
