The Education of Shelby Knox (2005) is a coming of age story of teenager in Lubbock, Texas who transforms from a conservative, abstinence until marriage pledging Southern Baptist to a Democratic feminist and supporter of gay rights. Selected Awards: Sundance Film Festival: Best Cinematography, Hugh M. Hefner Freedom of Expression Award, SXSW: Audience Award, Miami Gay and Lesbian Film Festival: Best Documentary, Sonoma Film Festival: Audience Award (PBS/POV 2005), Human Rights Watch Film Festival.
Live Free or Die (2000) is the portrait of a small town OB/GYN that explores the radical decline in the number of doctors performing abortions, as well as the impact of Catholic hospital mergers on the provision of abortion services. Aired as a POV special in 2000 with a town hall and Internet component that generated the most extensive on-line discussion in the history of POV programming.
Fatherhood USA (1998) is a mini-series that created portraits of fathers from very different walks of life: a teen dad struggling to break a cycle of fatherlessness; a factory worker discovering that he, too, can be involved with raising his daughters; and a CFO juggling the demands of a high powered executive wife and two small children. Hosted by former Senator Bill Bradley, the program aired nationally.
The Abortion Pill (1997) is a one-hour special that followed the long and controversial journey of the abortion pill (RU486) to the U.S. market. Tracking its use from France to England, India, Brazil and finally to the U.S., the program shows how a potent mix of business, politics and ethics made the pill a symbolic linchpin in the so-called abortion wars. Aired nationally.
